Team news & squads

Mallorca team news

New summer recruit Pablo Torre, just 22, could be the spark to watch, and fate has handed him a dream storyline, with his debut set for Saturday against the very club he departed only months ago. The only lingering concern in Jagoba Arrasate's selection plans is the fitness of midfielder Samú Costa.

The Islanders will look to the firepower of Vedat Muriqi and Cyle Larin to trouble the champions, while the defensive heartbeat of Antonio Jose Raillo Arenas and Martin Valjent will be tasked with holding the line against one of the most fearsome attacks in Europe.

Barcelona team news

Freed from Club World Cup duties, Barcelona have enjoyed the rare luxury of a full, uninterrupted pre-season ahead of their La Liga 2025-26 title defence. Even so, Flick's preparations haven’t been entirely smooth sailing. 

The shock exit of Inigo Martínez to Al-Nassr has left a gaping void in central defence, dismantling one of Spain's most assured partnerships at the back. 

To add to the headache, an untimely injury to Robert Lewandowski means either marquee arrival Marcus Rashford or the versatile Ferran Torres is expected to spearhead the attack in a 4-2-3-1 formation for Barca's league opener.
