Barcelona is going to start this La Liga journey with the match against Mallorca. Barcelona is definitely a bit lucky that they are not facing a strong team in the first match. Mallorca as a team is a very weak opponent.
We have seen that Barcelona's overall performance is also very strong this season in their friendly matches. Barcelona won against Como by a margin of 5-0 in the Joan Gamper Trophy. Moreover, Barcelona has won every friendly match by a large margin.
Barcelona's record of losing points against Mallorca is very low. We have seen Barcelona win in 14 of the last 15 matches against this team. Only one match has been drawn. So the possibility of Barcelona losing points in tomorrow's match is very low.
I’m so Happy the League matches are back, a new season to rumble, I wish they will adopt the US style as used in the FIFA Club World Cup, that was Epic and fun.
Almost all the teams this season has boosted their squad in one or two ways where necessary, Therefore I'm not expecting that much performance from Barcelona over Mallorca in this start up game, but rather a fair display of a season opening match despite that Barcelona are the main favorite team here to take home the 3 point home. But in a broader view of the season, I think Barcelona will be a team to watch both in the LaLiga and across European competitions.
