The 2024-25 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Mallorca lock horns with Celta Vigo in a crucial encounter at the Estadi Mallorca Son Moix on Saturday. Both teams have good players in their ranks and will want to win this game.
Mallorca vs Celta Vigo Preview
Celta Vigo are currently in seventh place in the La Liga standings and have been inconsistent so far this season. The Galician giants were held to a 1-1 draw by Las Palmas in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.
Mallorca, on the other hand, are in ninth place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best so far this season. The home side slumped to a narrow 1-0 defeat at the hands of Valencia last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
