Week 5 brings us a match on Sep 11th, where Real Madrid will play host to Mallorca in a La Liga match. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but hot day with daytime temperatures of 29 degrees, which may be tiring for the players. 1st placed Real Madrid is fresh off their 3-0 shutout win against Celtic. Vinícius Júnior scored the first goal for Real Madrid in the 56th minute, then Luka Modrić added another in the 60th minute on a feed from Eden Hazard In the end, Celtic was frustrated by Real Madrid’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Real Madrid ended the match with the shutout victory. With 20 points in their last 10 matches Real Madrid should be reasonably happy with their performance, while mallorca sits at 11th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-1 draw against Girona. Raillo struck first for Mallorca in the 87th minute on a feed from Lee Kang-In, then Samuel Saiz Alonso tied it up for Girona in the 2nd minute of the second half’s stoppage time earning them at least the one point. Mallorca is looking for direction having earned 11 points in their last 10 matches.
