How to Watch Mallorca vs Barcelona

Barcelona is back in action on Saturday when the reigning champion of La Liga makes its way to Mallorca seeking a repeat of its last trip to the Estadi Son Moix. The Blaugrana racked up a hefty 5-1 win at the ground en route to reclaiming Spain’s highest honor last term, having gone undefeated at the venue since May 2009.

Hansi Flick made an immediate impact in Catalonia last year and successfully guided Barca back to title honors in his first campaign at the helm. But with rival Real Madrid starting a fresh chapter under the guidance of Xabi Alonso, the pressure is high to stage a repeat of those heroics this time around.

Barcelona has been fairly quiet in the transfer window as it attempts to balance its finances, though the loan signing of Marcus Rashford from Manchester United has the potential to be electric. Despite falling out of favor at Old Trafford, the England forward brings a wealth of top-tier experience to a young squad.

Mallorca, meanwhile, may have one familiar face in the line-up after midfielder Pablo Torre traded the Camp Nou for a move to Palma. Goalkeeper Lucas Bergstrom will also look to play a part after joining the Pirates on a free from Chelsea, while former Spain under-21 Mateo Joseph has signed on loan from Leeds United.
