Copa Del Rey
Espanyol and Mallorca have faced each other 11 times since 2013. Espanyol claimed five wins, while Mallorca managed four. Notably, just one of the last 15 meetings between the sides was won by the away team.
Espanyol team overview
Espanyol resume their La Liga campaign with plenty of confidence after collecting seven points from their opening three fixtures. Manolo Gonzalez’s men began the season with a notable 2-1 win against Atletico Madrid, followed by a hard-earned draw away at Real Sociedad.
Back on home soil, Los Blanquiazules made it two wins from two at RCDE Stadium with a narrow 1-0 success against Osasuna. That impressive early-season run leaves Espanyol sitting fifth in the table, just two points off early leaders Real Madrid and Athletic Club.
The hosts also boast a strong record in this fixture, particularly in home fixtures. Espanyol are unbeaten in their last seven home meetings with Mallorca, winning six of those contests.
Head coach Gonzalez has close to a full squad available. Defender Javi Hernandez is the only doubt, with a late fitness check expected before kick-off.

Mallorca team overview
Mallorca travel to Catalonia still searching for their first victory of the campaign. Jagoba Arrasate’s side suffered defeats against Barcelona (3-0) and Real Madrid (2-1), while their only point came in a 1-1 draw at Celta Vigo.
With just a single point after three matches played, Los Bermellones sit 18th in the La La Liga standings. Their recent away form offers little encouragement either. Mallorca lost four of their last five La Liga road fixtures, and ten of 20 played over the past year.
Head coach Arrasate has a near-fully fit squad available for the trip to Barcelona. Javi Llabres faces a late fitness test and is the only potential absentee for the visitors.

Prediction
Espanyol have made a strong start to the La Liga campaign and look well placed against a Mallorca side that continues to struggle on the road.
A home win is my best bet, with both teams expected to score in what should be an open contest at RCDE Stadium.
Three Reasons Why We Expect Espanyol to Win
- Espanyol won their last 2 home matches
- Espanyol won their last 3 home matches against Mallorca
- Mallorca lost 4 of their last 5 away matches (La Liga)
