Sevilla — Mallorca : Match Preview and Prediction for October 18,2025

Sevilla’s Current Form and Squad News

Matías Almeyda’s squad had a tricky start to the season, but the Andalusians gradually gained momentum. The culmination of this was a recent crushing 4-1 victory over Barcelona at Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán before the international break. Alexis Sánchez initiated the rout against his former team, a lead extended by Carmona, Adams, and Romero. Consequently, with three wins in their last four matches, the red-and-whites now sit in the top 6, clearly demonstrating their significant potential. The injury list has also shortened, contributing to the team’s improved results. For the match against Mallorca, Kouassi and Joan Jordán will be unavailable for the hosts, while González remains doubtful.

Mallorca’s Season Start and Recent Performance

Jagoba Arrasate’s Mallorca narrowly missed out on European qualification last season, but the start of the new campaign has been exceptionally tough for the Balearic side. Their first league victory only came in the 7th round, a 2-1 home win against Alaves. However, following this, the red-and-blacks suffered a 1-2 defeat to a struggling Bilbao, indicating that their overall form remains quite challenging.

Squad Issues and Standings

Sitting at the bottom of the table with just 5 points after 8 games represents a significant decline for a team that has been a mid-table Primera side in recent years. In Seville, the visitors will be without key players such as Asano (injury) and Josabed (suspension). Rodríguez is also suspended, while Mascarell and Kumbulla are doubtful, all of whom are important rotation members.
