Mallorca
Estadio de Gran Canaria will host Saturday’s La Liga game between Las Palmas and Mallorca, who face each other at the start of the season. La Union Deportiva return to the Spanish top flight following a five-year absence and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field in the season opener. The club chiefs have signed the likes of Cristian Herrera, Daley Sinkgraven, Munir El Haddadi, and Aaron Escandell in the summer transfer window, while both Fabio Gonzalez and Machin Perez remain in the recovery room.
Los Bermellones, on the other hand, enjoyed a successful 2022/2023 La Liga campaign, with the team finishing the process in 9th position in the standings. Mallorca are eyeing yet another top-ten finish, but home win should be considered this time out as the newcomers want this triumph more than the visitors. Summer recruit Cyle Larin is likely to make his Mallorca debut against Las Palmas.
