Mallorca, Recent FormMallorca will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-1 home win against Rayo Vallecano. They came away from that fixture with 49% of the possession and clocked up 8 attempts on goal with 5 on target. By comparison, Rayo Vallecano managed 11 attempts on goal, with 4 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 4 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 9 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
They've been performing well at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix of late, with an unbeaten record of 5 games from 6, 3 of which were wins. Their home form in the early part of the season has produced an unusually high number of draws, with 7 draws in 12 home league games.
Real Sociedad, Recent FormThe Real Sociedad squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 home defeat against Osasuna, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they had 69% possession and managed 21 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Osasuna who had 9 attempts and 2 on target.
Having conceded 4 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 6 points. When playing away from home, they have scored in 4 of their last 6 games and are on a run of 2 consecutive clean sheets.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games.
Mikel Oyarzabal will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Mallorca in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Real Sociedad.
When these two teams last met in the league it was a 1-0 win for Real Sociedad.
The Mallorca defence has struggled against Txuri-Urdin in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 8 games. The Sociedad defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit Los Bermellones in the league, with Sociedad conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings. Sociedad have managed to keep a clean sheet against Mallorca in 4 of their previous 5 meetings.
In the league, Sociedad have been unbeaten in the last 3 times they have visited Mallorca at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix.
With only Pablo Maffeo (Knee) and Abdón Prats (Ankle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Javier Aguirre will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Sociedad manager Imanol Alguacil with Ander Barrenetxea (Hamstring), Sheraldo Becker (Muscle), Carlos Fernández (Knee), Álvaro Odriozola (Knee), Mikel Oyarzabal (Physical discomfort) and Kieran Tierney (Hamstring) all unavailable for selection, and Aihen Muñoz (Cruciate ligament) out for the rest of the season.
