Key Players to Watch

Sevilla

• Dodi Lukébakio (FWD): 5 goals, 4 assists; dynamic winger adding flair.

• Ørjan Nyland (GK): 7 clean sheets; key to their defensive resilience.

Mallorca

• Vedat Muriqi (FWD): 7 goals in 2024/25; Mallorca’s leading striker and aerial threat.

• Dani Rodríguez (MID): 4 goals, 5 assists; creative spark in midfield.

• Predrag Rajković (GK): 6 clean sheets; vital in goal.

Tactical Insights & Match Dynamics

Sevilla’s structured, possession-based approach (1.39 goals per game) will test Mallorca’s defensive resilience (1.26 goals conceded per game). Romero and Lukébakio’s interplay could exploit Mallorca’s away defense (1.55 goals conceded per game), which has been inconsistent. Mallorca’s counterattacking style (1.17 goals per game) relies on Muriqi’s physicality, challenging Sevilla’s backline (1.13 goals conceded per game). Sevilla’s Tanguy Nianzou (out, hamstring) and Mallorca’s Pablo Maffeo (doubtful, suspension risk) may affect lineups, with Sevilla’s 38,000-strong home crowd at Sánchez-Pizjuán adding intensity.
