Key Players to Watch in Getafe vs Mallorca

Bertuğ Yildirim (Getafe)

Summer signing Bertuğ Yildirim arrived from Rennes on a season-long loan and looked promising in the Spanish top flight. His work rate and technical abilities have made him an interesting addition to the Mallorca squad.

Cyle Larin (Mallorca)

The Canadian striker is one of the most influential names in the current Mallorca FC roster. The Pirates made a strong bet on the 29-year-old in 2023 when they made him the third-most expensive signing in the club’s history. Larin scored a brace against Girona taking his tally to four goals in 15 games this season.

Getafe vs Mallorca Prediction

Just like every season, Getafe are expected to struggle against the visitors in this tie. Jose Bordalas’s side have won three of their last five matches across all competitions and sustained a 1-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid in their latest game. Getafe are a real force to be reckoned with in his home tie but their entire campaign has been characterized with inconsistency.

As for Mallorca, they have made a mixed start to the domestic campaign as they are languishing sixth in the league table. The visitors have stepped up the plate in recent games despite a slow start to December. Mallorca have struggled in front of goal but have been robust defensively conceding only 21 goals.
