We knew that Girona would not be able to stay at the top throughout the season, as a result their performance started to decrease and they fell down in the rankings. Barcelona has a big advantage this week, they can win the match tonight and take second place in the rankings. Mallorca is not a strong team, Girona will play against Osasuna and there is a possibility of losing points

For Girona, winning the ticket Champions League is one of the most important things at the moment, regardless of where they will finish when the season ends. Girona gradual decline in performance made Barcelona lucky, because Xavi had the opportunity to bring his squad to finish in runner-up position. On paper, the Barcelona versus Mallorca match is fairly easy to guess, clearly Barcelona has a much higher chance of securing full points.

On the other hand, the Girona versus Osasuna match is also fairly easy to predict, Girona will most likely also be able to secure full points. In the last meeting, Girona managed to beat Osasuna 4-2. Acting as host will help Michel squad start to regain consistency, because in the last five matches Girona has lost a lot of points and was only able to win one match.

It has to be done because it's quite unfortunate if they drop out of the Champions League after an incredible start to the season and half of the season for Girona.
But it can't be denied that Girona form has dropped significantly in recent matches.
They keep dropping points which has reduced their momentum a little bit and I think things like this need to be resolved soon.

Although currently in terms of points they still have a fairly comfortable gap apart from Barcelona at the moment but if their performance is not too good to continue then this could also be troublesome for them especially the match until the end of the season is still quite long because there are approximately 11 matches they have not completed.

Currently some dark horse clubs like Bilbao must also be considered because it could be with Girona's poor results that some other clubs take advantage of to seize their position.

Oh, I didn't realize who owns Girona and who has the biggest investment in the club. Girona looks like they deserve to qualify for next season's Champions League due to their impressive form, but if the rule is true and it could prevent Girona from qualifying for the Champions League, then I don't know what to say.

By the way, Barcelona has had great difficulty scoring goals against Mallorca so far. The score was still 0-0 even though Barcelona dominated the match. Xavi cannot lead his team on the sidelines, but it looks like he will maximize all his players to get points today even though they will face Napoli in the second leg in midweek.

Yes it will hinder Girona if it is a decision on UEFA part to get rid of one of them. But in this case I only assume that UEFA will make a wise decision. Indeed, Girona performance has been extraordinary in Laliga this season, they have managed to stay in 2nd place for a long time. If they fail to become champions, of course the fans will not be too disappointed because one of their targets has been achieved, namely qualifying for the Champions League next season.

Well, where Barcelona plays in their own stadium and the match is already underway in the second half but the score is still 0-0. Mallorca cannot be underestimated because in the previous match they managed to beat Girona and in today match they were able to balance their game by creating a strong defense. So, if Mallorca manages to surprise them in today match, of course they are in a pretty good process of improving their position on the standings.

Edit Barcelona took a 1-0 lead through Lamine Yamal.

Barcelona does not underestimate Mallorca, but the injury cases experienced by several Barcelona players have forced Xavi to play many young players. Fermin Lopez replaced Raphinha midway through the match, Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsi also played without Araujo. But it's true, Barcelona have now scored a goal which Lamine Yamal actually managed to do after two attempts at the same angle.

Lamine Yamal is still very young, but he really troubles his opponent's defense. His skills are very good, but I think he is still very fragile because he still has many shortcomings. He is still very physically weak compared to opposing defenders, but he has good balance when dribbling the ball. Great, that's Lamine Yamal who scored several goals and assists for the first team when he was only 16 years old.

[nurilham]

There is still a chance. but...
Indeed, so far, the result is still a draw 0 - 0.
Well, if you look at the statistics, Barcelona is far superior. Barcelona also made a pretty good attack, but it wasn't too sharp so Mallorca could still beat it quite well.

In fact, Barcelona also has to be wary of Mallorca's performance. Even though in La Liga, they are not a top club, their performance recently has really improved. Moreover, they also entered the Cop Del Rey final. This is certainly very surprising.

Barcelona has scored 1 goal now. Yamal succeed scoring the first goal in minute 73'. I think Barcelona will win this match because they are playing at home and very dominating the match. Xavi just released some new players in second half, it is proven quite effective. No doubt Barcelona is very superior and makes many shot attempts. But Barcelona needs players who have a good accuracy in shooting. Lewandowski is one of the players that we expect to score more goals for Barcelona.

True. The performance of Mallorca is quite impressive in Copa Del Rey. It is very surprising to see them in the final round. However, in La Liga matches, Mallorca is still a weak team with no surprise results. They are even not very far from the relegation zone. So, I don't expect much for a surprise in this match.  

[lalabotax]

Barcelona needs a victory in order to keep close to Real Madrid or the title fight will slowly but surely fade away , but so far a draw seems the direction the current game is going into. Mallorca has a simple plan so far ...to not make big mistakes on first 30 meters because I doubt Barcelona can miss 2 penalties in a row.

Barcelona is already ahead 1 : 0 through a goal from Yamal right now in the current match that is still ongoing.

Apart from that, Barcelona also dominated even more, especially in the second half. With conditions like this, if Barcelona can at least defend it, then it won't be difficult for the club to win against Mallorca.

But yes, this will depend on how Xavi makes his follow-up strategy in the final minutes. Because, Mallorca is also starting to move again and still hasn't given up. In fact, Mallorca has attempted attacks on Barcelona several times. Luckily, the Barcelona players seemed alert and ready for these conditions.

Barcelona have taken the lead from the 73rd minute after Lamine Yanakochi gave them the lead with an assist from Robert Lewandowski. The match is still ongoing and on the 82nd minutes. The match is highly in favor of Barcelona who are playing from home and with the look of things the match will end in favour of Barcelona. If they win today, they’ll remain on the 3rd position with only one point separating them and Girona. The fight for the second spot is still tight unlike the fight for the top spot which Real Madrid have already dominated with a point gap of seven between them and Girona on the second position.

[bitpotter]

Unfortunately, Gundogan's penalty kick failed to be executed properly, but now he has managed to take a 1 goal lead through Lamine Yamal. It looks like Barcelona will win narrowly again and they shouldn't be happy just yet because anything can still happen. Mallorca will try to equalize if possible with little time remaining. Barcelona must strengthen its defense and seal this win at home.

[AprilioMP]

Barcelona still has a chance to win against Mallorca because Xavi still hasn't included Lewandowski as far as the match is going.
Xavi still entrusts the 18 year old young striker to the center forward position with his own formation.

There is still a chance. but...
Indeed, so far, the result is still a draw 0 - 0.

Correct. There's still a chance. Not long after you said that, the score changed to Barcelona's advantage...

Xavi's decision was right, Lewandowski was introduced by Xavi, so Lewandowski became the player who provided Yamal with an assist in scoring the goal so that Barcelona's current position is 1-0.
Lewandowski is an experienced player. As a senior compared to Marc Guiu and Yamal, Xavi seemed to already know that if he brought in Lewandowski to replace Marc Guiu there would be changes.

This 1-0 advantage will be maintained until the end of the match. It's possible that the final score will not be 1-0, but 2-0.

After struggling hard to score, in the end Lamine Yamal managed to maximize his chance in the 73rd minute. It was a beautiful goal with his left foot, but Mallorca are a dangerous team who might still be able to score in the rest of this match. 1-0 is not safe because the tension in the match is still high, even Barcelona is still trying to double its lead to secure victory.

If Barcelona manages to win this match, it means they are only 5 points away from Real Madrid. However, this is not important because Real Madrid can widen the points gap by winning the next match against Celta Vigo.

Barcelona dominated the game and they were able to play more comfortably especially at the last minutes of the game if they scored the penalty in the first half in addition to the goal scored by Yamal.
I agree with you that Barcelona shouldn't be happy with such result. A one goal difference isn't reassuring and a late goal could cost them two points at the time they are desperate to catch Real Madrid..

There is an additional 5 minutes of extra time for Mallorca to equalize the goal, and five minutes for Barcelona to hold on to the only goal in the match. The magic moment of Yamal made the difference in the match, as he gave Barcelona all three points in this match.

Mallorca played very superbly , and they were able to  play until the 71st minutes before the youngest player in Barcelona broke the deadlock lock, to have the only goal in the match. The final whistle has been blown to end the match and Barcelona won Mallorca 1-0. Yamal was able to make the difference in this match.

Barcelona have closed the gap temporarily with Real Madrid, and they are now on the second position ahead of Girona, who will play against Osasuna.

There has been quite a significant increase in the club. Xavi really has to be more alert and think about tactics to be able to beat Mallorca no matter what in this match.

The goal Barcelona was looking for came from young player Lamine Yamal with a stylish shot from outside the penalty area at minute 73. This goal was so important for Xavi and his team because now everything is in good shape with three points in this difficult match to get closer to Real Madrid. Girona are behind them and they are not far away from Real Madrid. Xavi needs a winning streak from now on.

The match proved to be quite challenging for Barcelona, as Mallorca put up a tough fight throughout. However, Barcelona ultimately emerged victorious with a narrow one-goal margin, securing their win in the game. Despite the intense pressure Barcelona exerted on Mallorca, the outcome was uncertain until the final moments. The introduction of Lewandowski into the pitch during the second half proved to be a strategic decision.

Despite his advancing age, Lewandowski demonstrated his value to the team, showcasing his enduring skill and effectiveness on the field. Considering his age, one might not expect him to play a full-time role, but his performance proved otherwise. Utilizing him judiciously, the coach maximized Lewandowski's impact, contributing significantly to Barcelona's success in the match.

Mallorca has a simple plan so far ...to not make big mistakes on first 30 meters because I doubt Barcelona can miss 2 penalties in a row.

Barcelona get a late win to make them go two points ahead of Girona, and five points behind Real Madrid.

This win is an important win for Barcelona, this win will give Barcelona chance to be in the title race with Madrid because Madrid is not too good for now  and Girona is not also in good form as they started the season.

If Real Madrid win their next match against Celta Vigo, they will extend their points gap to eight points for Barcelona, while if Girona also win the match against Osasuna, they will maintain their second position with one point ahead of Barcelona, and all there matches are winnable both for Madrid and Girona, therefore, Barcelona position is not yet guaranteed for now.

After a hot 90-minute game, Barcelona were able to get their 3 points in the game, which I also sighed would happen, but I was disappointed to see them lose the penalty. It was not amazing at all, but all that is already gone since they were still able to achieve the point they deserved. 

Although even if Barcelona were not ready to win Mallorca, when they remember that they are still in a point battle with Girona, they will try their possible best to see that they win the game just to get a point and drop Girona down in the table, which they have already done after their hard win against Mallorca. 

So for now, Girona are the ones at the point of tension because if Atletico Madrid gets five points in their next match and Girona loses again, that means they will definitely go back to the 4th in the table, which will make them feel very discouraged. So to avoid that from happening, they need to have a static control on their performance. That is just the solution for them.

[Leviathan.007]

Regarding the game between Atletico Madrid and Cadiz. Diego Simeone started talking about this match and he said they will try hard to win this match and beat Cadiz how ever I don't think if Cadiz can be a strong team to stand against Atletico Madrid at all and normally they can beat Cadiz easily in this match but Diego Simeone had bad news about their player, Antoine Griezmann.
Griezmann got injured in the game they had against Inter Milan and so ar he is still not in good form and he still needs some more time to recover which means he can't play in the second leg against Imatyer Milan while in that match they need to win the game and change the 1-0 result they got in the first leg.

The fight for the second spot is still tight unlike the fight for the top spot which Real Madrid have already dominated with a point gap of seven between them and Girona on the second position.

Mallorca isn't a tough, they appear more like a mediocre team and so I was expecting an easy pass for Barcelona, probably with at least two or more goals but it's unfortunate that even with Barcelona's dominance and every of their performance in the game, they were unable to score as much goals as we're expected of them in this game, just a goal wasn't enough even if it was a win for them but it looked poor.

Barcelona would have won with better goal difference but they only seem like they were unlucky because they had better possession of the ball and aswell dominated the game from the first half to the last and we're expected to win comfortably but then they got a narrow win which gave them three points regardless as that's actually the most important but then Barcelona will still not be able to meet up with Madrid to be able to find a spot at the top and possibly get the trophy but then it unseeming like Barcelona is in the top four but cannot get to race for the title.

The home advantage for Barcelona was something they could have used to win this game but seem they couldn't utilize it well enough, the race to the second position between girona and Barcelona keeps intensifying as they both keep closing up the gap but trying to get to her top is something I don't think they would want to do because they would have to win two or more straight matches meanwhile inter will as well be loosing before they will be able to achieve that which is almost not possible.

Barcelona do not deserve to be in second, Girona deserve it more because they have really worked hard this season. Barcelona have just been disappointing, and their performance very unsatisfactory. Last week I really expected them to win that game and be in second, so that the win this week will be to solidify their position, they missed their opportunity, and the lovers of the club will be hoping that this week, since they have started with a narrow win, will want Girona to drop points too, that should not be the standard the club should be at.

Barcelona faced many difficulties when hosting Mallorca, and the team was in the bottom half of the La Liga rankings. On a very ungainly day, the home players kicked 20 times towards the away team's goal, so the 1-0 victory was a big disappointment after the 90 minutes officially ended. Barcelona played slackly after scoring the opening goal against Mallorca. This opens up opportunities for the away team to rise up. However, Mallorca had yet to succeed in front of Barcelona's goal despite having several good opportunities. This can be considered a lucky day for Barcelona. One unconvincing victory. Barcelona has disappointed its fans this season. This season Girona is the breakthrough and strong team, only they have enough strength to compete for the championship with Real Madrid.
