Maiorca-Atletico Madrid is a match valid for the thirty-fourth day of La Liga and is played on Saturday at 21:00: TV, formations and predictions
It will be a special Saturday in Spain, spectacular dare we say: in the space of a few hours in fact not only do all the top four of the league play, but the fate of the league could also be decided. Atletico Madrid, which will be engaged on the field of Mallorca, will close it out.
The hosts have not won since March 16: Simeone’s men, on the other hand, have put aside the critical moment by managing to take the three points last weekend against Bilbao and securing their place in the next Champions League. It’s not mathematical, however, it seems impossible to us that the Colchoneros can get out of the top four. Of course, seeing the direct clash between Girona and Barcelona, the thought might also be to move closer to third place in the standings, and a win against Mallorca, in this sense, would be crucial.
Muriqi and his teammates, however, after (perhaps) absorbing the disappointment of the King’s Cup final lost on penalties, have yet to achieve salvation. Cadiz (who will play at the Bernabeu), which would currently be relegated, is six points away. Not too many. But not a few either with five days to go. So yes there is a little tranquility, however, one would have to try to score points to put the lock on staying in the top Spanish league. But of points, unfortunately for the islanders, in this match, none should come.
The prediction
Putting behind, as said, the negative moment, Atletico Madrid wants to close the season in the best way possible aiming also at the third place in the standings. A match that Simeone’s men should therefore be able to bring home. Yes, an outside win is in order.
