Barcelona vs Mallorca: La Liga Leaders Host Matchday 23 Clash at Camp Nou
London, 7 February 2026 – FC Barcelona return to La Liga action today as they welcome RCD Mallorca to the Spotify Camp Nou for a Matchday 23 fixture. Hansi Flick’s side currently sits at the summit of the table with 55 points, holding a significant lead in their title defence. Mallorca, meanwhile, arrive in Catalonia positioned 14th in the standings with 24 points, looking to cause an upset against a side they have historically struggled to overcome.
Match Preview and Team News
Barcelona enter this fixture in formidable form, having won their last five matches across all competitions. Their most recent domestic outing saw them secure a 5-1 victory away at Mallorca earlier this season, where captain Raphinha netted a brace. However, the Catalan giants will have to navigate today’s fixture without several key personnel. Gavi, Pedri, Raphinha, and Andreas Christensen are all confirmed to be unavailable for selection.
Despite these absences, the spotlight remains on teenage sensation Lamine Yamal, who has been instrumental in Barcelona’s recent success, including a standout performance in their midweek Copa del Rey victory against Albacete. Mallorca, under pressure to improve their away form, will be looking to tighten a defence that has struggled against Barcelona’s high-pressing system in recent years.
Key Facts: Head-to-Head and Standings
The historical record between these two clubs heavily favours the Blaugrana. Barcelona are currently on a 19-match unbeaten streak against Mallorca, a run that includes 17 wins and 12 clean sheets.
