Match Preview
- A final-matchday match with relegation implications between Mallorca (18th, 39 points) and bottom side Oviedo (20th, 29 points, one game fewer). Although Mallorca sit 18th in the relegation zone, the points gap to the sides above leaves their survival hopes alive. Oviedo are rooted to the bottom on just 29 points and, with 26 goals scored and 55 conceded this season, face problems at both ends with relegation all but certain.
- Mallorca have struggled with one win, one draw and three losses in their last five, including a 0-2 away defeat to Levante on matchday 37. With 44 goals scored and 57 conceded this season, their defensive frailty stands out and is a factor in their place in the drop zone. They will look to win their final game at Son Moix and, depending on results elsewhere, chase a miraculous survival.
- Oviedo have been kept from victory with two draws and three losses in their last five, including a 0-1 home defeat to Alaves on matchday 37. They are plagued by a serious lack of goals, the league's fewest with 26, and sit bottom by a ten-point margin. Relegation to the Segunda, for the first time since 1974, is all but confirmed.
- In this season's matchday 15 meeting, the sides drew 0-0 at Oviedo. Mallorca are just one point behind 17th-place Girona (40 points) and 16th-place Sevilla (40 points, one game fewer), so a win combined with results elsewhere keeps their survival hopes alive.
- Mallorca line up in a 4-2-3-1, building their attack while keeping balance with two holding midfielders. Under manager Javier Aguirre, they will show an attacking approach in their final home game, aiming for a high-scoring win. Improving their goal difference of -13 is also an important factor in their survival.
- Oviedo deploy a defensive 5-3-2, prioritising keeping goals conceded to a minimum. Under manager Luis Carrion, with relegation already likely, they take on the final round with pride on the line. As an old club from Asturias, this is a fight that vows a fresh start in the Segunda next season.
