Real Madrid vs Mallorca: Ancelotti’s Farewell Begins as Title Slips Away; Mbappe Eyes Top Scorer Award

Real Madrid vs Mallorca: Ancelotti’s Farewell Begins as Title Slips Away; Mbappe Eyes Top Scorer Award

Real Madrid welcome Mallorca to the Santiago Bernabéu on Wednesday night in a crucial La Liga clash that could officially hand the title to Barcelona if Los Blancos fail to win.

Having lost 4-3 in a pulsating El Clasico last weekend, Real Madrid are now seven points adrift of the leaders with just three games remaining. Victory is a must if they hope to delay Barca’s title celebrations for at least 24 more hours.

🔵⚪Real Madrid Seek Pride, Not the Crown | Home Win = 1.39💵

The mood in the Spanish capital is one of frustration following Sunday’s dramatic defeat at Montjuïc. Despite Kylian Mbappe’s hat-trick heroics, Madrid’s defensive collapse saw them concede four first-half goals to Barcelona, a result that has almost certainly ended their title challenge.

Carlo Ancelotti, who is set to leave at the end of the season to take over as Brazil coach, now looks to guide his side to a strong finish with remaining fixtures against Mallorca, Sevilla, and Real Sociedad.

Real Madrid Players Celebrating a Goal

Madrid has won 14 of 17 home games in La Liga this season (D1, L2), and they’ll be eager to maintain that momentum. Los Blancos also boast a dominant home record against Mallorca, winning their last eight La Liga meetings at the Bernabéu and scoring 25 goals across those fixtures.

Mallorca Players Celebrating a Goal

❤️Mallorca Aiming for European Push | Away Win = 8.09💵

Mallorca, who sit ninth in the table, come into this fixture with Europa or Conference League dreams still alive. Jagoba Arrasate’s men ended a three-game winless run by beating relegated Real Valladolid 2-1, showing signs of resilience and ambition.

Though they held Madrid to a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture, their away form remains a concern. Mallorca have lost five of their last eight road trips and failed to score in eight of 17 La Liga away matches—only Getafe and Sociedad have fared worse.

Mallorca Players Celebrating a Goal

Still, with European places just two points out of reach, Mallorca will be motivated to punch above their weight. Any result in Madrid could prove massive for their continental aspirations.

🗝️Key Players & Team News📰:

Real Madrid will be without several starters: Carvajal, Militao, Rudiger, Mendy, and Camavinga are all sidelined. Vinicius Jr. (ankle) is a major doubt, while Lucas Vázquez and Tchouameni (suspension) are also ruled out.

Kylian Mbappe remains the central figure, with five goals in his last two league games. Rodrygo, still recovering from illness, may return to the starting XI depending on fitness levels.

For Mallorca, Abdon Prats, Morlanes, and Navarro are confirmed absentees. Chiquinho remains doubtful, while Jose Copete, Antonio Sanchez, and Cyle Larin could be rotated into the starting lineup by Arrasate.

AC Milan vs Bologna: Outgoing Milan Manager Look to Lift First Rossoneri Double Since 2008 & Secure Europa Qualification in Coppa Final

AC Milan vs Bologna: Outgoing Milan Manager Look to Lift First Rossoneri Double Since 2008 & Secure Europa Qualification in Coppa Final

AC Milan and Bologna lock horns in the Coppa Italia final on Wednesday night at the iconic Stadio Olimpico in Rome, with both sides chasing a long-awaited piece of domestic silverware and a route back into European competition.

With Milan last winning the Coppa Italia in 2003, and Bologna not since 1974, this is a historic shot at glory for two sides who’ve battled through contrasting seasons but now stand just 90 minutes from triumph.

AC Milan Players Celebrating a Goal

🔴⚫Milan Aim to Lift Elusive Trophy & Book European Spot| Milan Win = 2.98💵

Milan entered the final on a four-match winning streak across all competitions— their best run in over a year— by securing a thrilling 3-1 comeback win over Bologna last week in Serie A.

That form reflects a tactical shift under Sergio Conceicao that sparked late-season life, and now it’s presented them with another route to Europe as a victory in the Coppa Italia final would secure a spot in the Europa League.

AC Milan Players Celebrating Goal

With Supercoppa Italiana glory already secured in January, the Rossoneri seek a rare domestic double and are undefeated in their last five Coppa Italia matches. They also knocked out rivals Inter in the semis (4-1 agg), adding fire to their title pursuit.

Bologna Celebrating a Goal

🔵🔴Bologna Hoping for First Coppa in 51 Years & More| Bologna Win = 2.65💵

Bologna’s impressive run to the final has lifted the club into rarefied territory. Their path included a 5-1 semi-final demolition of Empoli and a shock victory over Atalanta, highlighting their attacking depth and ability to take chances.

Despite recent Serie A stumbles, including a 3-1 loss to Milan on Friday, Vincenzo Italiano’s team is unbeaten in all four Coppa Italia matches this season and remains unpredictable, especially with players like Riccardo Orsolini and Thijs Dallinga in form.

Bologna Players Celebrating a  Win

The Rossoblu are seeking just their third Coppa Italia triumph. With Champions League qualification now in jeopardy, winning this title could offer a dramatic shortcut to European football and complete a fairytale season.

🗝️Key Players & Team News📰:

Barcelona vs Real Madrid: Do or Die for Ancelotti’s Los Blancos as Madrid Search First Win Against Barca in La Liga Decider

Barcelona vs Real Madrid: Do or Die for Ancelotti’s Los Blancos as Madrid Search First Win Against Barca in La Liga Decider

Barcelona welcome Real Madrid to Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys on Sunday in a decisive El Clásico that could all but seal La Liga. With just three games left, this clash might determine who lifts the 2024/25 crown.

Having already beaten Madrid three times this season—including in two finals—Barca enter this showdown with the psychological edge. But Real, four points behind, know a win keeps their title dream alive and it will be good revenge.

Barca Players Celebrating Goal

🔴🔵Barcelona Eye Domestic Treble & League Glory | Home Win = 2.05💵

Fresh from the heartbreak of a 7-6 aggregate Champions League semi-final loss to Inter, Barcelona now shift their focus to securing the domestic league. Flick’s side led the tie until the 93rd minute of the second leg before collapsing in extra time.

Despite that setback, the Catalans are unbeaten in their last four La Liga games, including a 2-1 victory over Valladolid last weekend. They’ve already lifted the Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup this season.

With a four-point lead at the summit and fixtures against Espanyol, Villarreal, and Bilbao still to come, a win or even a draw could prove decisive.

⚪⚫Real Madrid Need All Three Points to Stay Alive | Away Win = 3.44💵

After a full week’s rest, Real Madrid come into this must-win clash fresh and determined. Ancelotti’s men beat Celta Vigo 3-2 last time out, but are aware that anything less than a win ends their La Liga title hopes.

Real Madrid Players Celebrating Goal

Knocked out by Arsenal in the UCL and beaten by Barca in both the Copa del Rey and Super Cup finals, this clash is about pride as much as silverware.

Even with rumours swirling around Xabi Alonso replacing Ancelotti next season and a ton of injuries across the backline, Madrid have somehow found a way to win their last four league games, keeping three clean sheets.

So, in what will most likely be his last El Clásico game in charge, Carlo Ancelotti would know that a win at Montjuïc would not only keep the title race burning into the final stretch but be a fantastic send-off gift to Madridistas.
