Barcelona host Mallorca at the Nou Camp looking to keep pace at the top. This will be a decisive game at both ends of the table.

Barcelona aims to temporarily climb to second place in La Liga with a win against Mallorca this Friday at the Estadi Olimpic Luis Companys. Despite recent impressive form with four wins and two draws, they come off a disappointing 0-0 draw against Athletic Club. Trailing second-placed Girona by a point, Barcelona faces a chance to improve their position. However, their home form has been inconsistent lately, with a draw and a loss in their last four league matches.

Mallorca, currently eight points above the relegation zone, have recently improved their position with seven points from their last four league games, including a 1-0 win over second-placed Girona. However, their away form has been poor, with no wins in their last ten away league games, losing six of those.
