Mallorca are 6 points above the relegation zone. This is a very comfortable situation if we consider their limited budget and recent experiences in La Liga. Javier Aguirre has built up a group upon solid defense.

Of course, Mallorca cannot allow themselves to have too much illusion about Copa del Rey. A good cup run is difficult and might distract the players from the campaign against relegation. Real Sociedad are the favorite for this Tuesday's match. They are in great form and they might want to challenge the title like 3 years ago.

However, Mallorca’s Mexican coach also believes that the cup tournament gives rise to surprises. And that is what Mallorca will look for at the Reale Arena. "Without fear of being wrong, Real is the fittest team right now. Everything can happen after ninety minutes, we are very excited. They are a favorite for one game. Seen from what they have shown in the League and their latest results, it they are. I don't know how much because it's not tangible. But it's a Cup and there are results that are not expected", he reflected.

If we consider that Real Sociedad had played an important derby match against Athletic last weekend, they cannot hope to be at 100% on the physical aspect. Mallorca might have a small chance even if they use their reserve players (against the reserves of Real Sociedad).

Let’s back Mallorca.

马洛卡比降级区高出6分。 如果我们考虑到他们有限的预算和近年在西甲的经历，这是一个非常舒适的情况。阿吉雷在稳固的防守基础上打造了一个优秀团队。

当然，马洛卡不能让自己对国王杯抱有太多幻想。 一个好的杯赛之旅是很困难的，可能会分散球员们对保级战役的注意力。 本周二的比赛，皇家社会是热门。 他们的状态很好，他们可能会像3年前那样力争捧杯。

然而，马洛卡的墨西哥教练也认为，杯赛会带来惊喜。而这正是马洛卡在皇家社会客场所期待的。"不怕错，皇家社会现在是状态最好的球队。90分钟里一切都可能发生，我们非常兴奋。他们是比赛的热门。从他们在联赛中的表现和最新的结果来看，他们肯定是热门。我不知道有多热，因为这不是可以量化。但这是一个杯赛，有些结果是无法期待的"，他说。

如果我们考虑到皇家社会在上周末与毕尔巴鄂竞技进行了一场重要的德比战，他们不可能希望在体力方面达到100%。 马洛卡即使使用他们的后备球员（对阵皇家社会的后备球员），也可能有一点机会。

让我们支持马洛卡。
