Eldense - Mallorca
Eldense look to find balance against confident Mallorca
Can Eldense find the defensive cohesion needed to stop a surging Mallorca side when they meet on 5 September 2026 at Estadio Pepico Amat? For the hosts, the expected XI features a midfield-heavy setup with Fidel Chaves and Guillermo Macho tasked with controlling the tempo. However, the absence of Mariano Carmona through injury forces a reshuffle in their approach to matchday 4. They will need a disciplined performance from defenders Javier Olaizola and Floris Smand to contain the visitors, especially after their recent 1-0 defeat to Leganes highlighted vulnerabilities at the back.
Mallorca arrive with momentum following a dominant 3-0 victory over AD Ceuta FC. Their expected lineup, anchored by Antonio Raillo and Martin Valjent, provides a solid platform for attackers Adrian Fuentes and Zito Luvumbo to exploit spaces. Having alternated results in their opening fixtures, Mallorca will aim to establish consistency in this LaLiga2 encounter.
