Mallorca will be battling to confirm their stay in the top flight this Sunday when they travel to Estadio El Sadar for a clash against Osasuna in the final match day off the La Liga Season. Kickoffs at 21:00 EAT
Osasuna enter this match in poor form, having not won a game in their last five outings missing their chance to climb closer to eighth spot. The home team is in ninth position with 47 points while the visitors are in 17th position with 36 points. Osasuna had ambitions of playing in Europe next season but their run of five matches without a win has dashed any hopes of a Europa position.
Los Rojillos will be looking to bounce back from 2-0 La Liga defeat to Athletic Bilbao in their last encounter. In that match, Osasuna had 55% possession and eight shots with one of them on target. Athletic Bilbao got 14 shots with eight of them on target and goals by Álex Berenguer (33′) and Villalibre (79′).
Mallorca has everything to play for in this match with the top flight survival hanging in the balance. They are currently in 17th place but have the same number of points as 18th placed Cadiz, who occupies the last relegation spot. A win on Sunday night against Osasuna will leave Mallorca in the top flight of Spanish football next season.
Los Piratas head into this meeting hoping for another win following 2-1 La Liga win to beat Rayo Vallecano in their last game. In that match, Mallorca had 45% possession, 12 shots with five of them on target and goals scored by Vedat Muriqi (13′) and Abdón Prats (92′). Rayo Vallecano got 11 shots with four of them on target and a goal by Pathé Ismaël Ciss (60′).
