Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla will host Saturday’s football game between Cadiz and Mallorca, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. Cadiz sit in the relegation zone, but a win over Mallorca could see them escape the bottom three. Fede San Emeterio is back from suspension, but Ivan Alejo will have to serve his ban against los Bermellones. Both Fali and Jose Mari remain in the recovery room.
Meanwhile, the visitors defeated Celta Vigo thanks to Daniel Rodriguez’s goal. Mallorca, though, are not regarded as good travellers, and seeing that Cadiz are desperate to get back on course, home win should be considered. In the first half of the season Mallorca defeated Cadiz 2-1, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge. Midfielder Kang-In Lee is back from suspension, while there are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
Highlighted Player (Lucas Perez):
Lucas Perez is a Spanish footballer who plays for Deportivo La Coruna as a striker. Lucas Perez was born in La Coruna on 10 September, 1988 and he started his youth career at Alaves. Between 2007 and 2009 he played for Atletico Madrid C and in 2009 he signed for Rayo Vallecano.
Lucas Perez scored 25 goals in 44 appearances for los Vallecanos, but he played no more than seven matches for the first team. In 2011 he joined Ukrainian side Karpaty Lviv, but two years later he moved to PAOK, where he played 32 league games for the Greek outfit (scoring nine goals).
Lucas made it to the Greek Football Cup final with PAOk in the 2013/2014 season, but Panathinaikos emerged triumphant in the title game. On 12 August, 2015, Lucas signed a four-year deal with his home-town club Deportivo La Coruna and he impressed in the 2015/2016 La Liga campaign, scoring 17 goals for the Galician outfit.
Highlighted Team (Mallorca):
Thanks to a win over Deportivo La Coruna in the 2018/2019 Segunda Division play-offs final Mallorca secured promotion to Primera Division. Los Bermellones returned to the Spanish top flight following a six-year absence. Over the years Mallorca have turned their Estadi de son Moix into a real fortress, with the team producing much better showings at home than on the travels.
Opened in June 1999, the venue can hold up to 23,142 people. The club based in Balearic Islands are well known for their red shirts with one black stripe and black shorts. Mallorca’s away colours are white and red. Former Barcelona and Inter ace Samuel Eto’o is undisputedly the most notable footballer who played for the club.
Back in 1999 Mallorca made it to the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup final, with the team suffering a 2-1 loss to Lazio in the title game. Four years later los Bermellones won Spanish Copa del Rey, which is considered the club’s biggest success.
