Mallorca 0 - 1 Barcelona - Highlights
Guiza has a huge scoring opportunity in the first half, but his shot went just wide.
Barcelona manage to win in Mallorca and will wait now and hope for a Real Madrid upset tomorrow. It was a hard fought win for the Catalans with both goals coming in the second half. Rafael Marquez was the hero of the night for Barca. His header over the crossbar in the first half announced the goal from the 63rd minute. The Mexican defender scored with another header from a Xavi Hernandez corner kick cross. Samuel Eto’o scored against his former team again and completed a nice night for Barcelona and it’s fans.

The Holiday is over at the La Liga resumes with the games of the 18th round. Barcelona will travel on Saturday to Mallorca and restart their race after Primera Division leaders, Real Madrid. After the 1 - 0 defeat at the Nou Camp, the Catalans find themselves 7 points adrift. More, their recent Copa del Rey semi-upset against Alcoyano, strenghtened the theory that Barcelona is further and further away of their goals this season.
Mallorca should not be an easy target for Eto’o and company. It will be for sure an interesting game and we at the FCFootballBlog will provide you the live coverage as soon as the match kicks-off. I will offer you free live text commentary, live score, streams and videos with the most important events at the Son Moix Stadium, moments after they occur.

Betting Tips
Barcelona need a win in order to keep their small chances for the La Liga title still alive. They are trailing Real Madrid by 7 points and even worse, their game is not shining at all. Mallorca is a team from the middle part of the table, 5 points adrift of an UEFA Cup qualifying place. I am predicting, a safe x2 bet for this game. I mean Barcelona won’t lose but they also don’t look that sure of winning. Good luck to everyone who decides to bet on this event.
Head to Head
The recent head to head comparison shows that Barcelona dominated Mallorca over the latest 5 encounters. The Catalans won all the most recent 5 games. All of them where played in the La Liga. The last win was registered in mid April 2007 at the Nou Camp.
15.04.07 Barcelona 1-0 Mallorca
19.11.06 Mallorca 1-4 Barcelona
29.01.06 Mallorca 0-3 Barcelona
11.09.05 Barcelona 2-0 Mallorca
19.02.05 Barcelona 2-0 Mallorca
Line-ups
Mallorca could start with a defensive 4-5-1 formation with the hope to keep at least one point at the Son Moix Stadium. Coach Gregorio Manzano could send a single striker and build an imposing 5 men midfield in order to stop Barcelona’s “impressive” passing skills.
Frank Rijakard could use the standard 4-4-2 line-up with Samuel Eto’o and Thierry Henry upfront. Barca is not in a good shape and a win in Mallorca would be highly needed.
