Both sides will be looking for a good result to kick-start the new season, but Mallorca should overpower a frail Espanyol side.
Keep an eye on: Emilio Nsue (Mallorca): Following impressive loan spells at Castellon and Real Sociedad, Nsue will finally feature predominantly for Mallorca. The 22-year-old attacking winger has represented Spain at every underage level.
Last season: Mallorca 1-0 Espanyol
Stat fact: Mallorca are undefeated in 11 of their last 12 home matches against Espanyol in all competitions.
Mallorca (probable): Aouate; Nsue, Bigas, Nunes, Lopez; Pereira, Pina, Marquez, Alfaro; Hemed, Victor
Espanyol (probable): Alvarez; Lopez, Moreno, Rodriguez, Capdevila; Gomez, Tejera; Thievy, Verdu, Fonte; Alvaro
