Mallorca will be searching for a breakthrough victory in 2024 when they go to Municipal El Plantio on Sunday to face Burgos in the Copa del Rey round of 32.
Javier Aguirre’s side began the year with a close defeat to Real Madrid and will be aiming to rebound this weekend.
Burgos earned a share of the spoils in their final game of 2023, a dramatic 3-3 draw with Espanyol at the Estadi Cornellà-El Prat.
As a consequence, Bolo’s team has now gone eight straight games without defeat in all competitions, propelling them to 11th position in the La Liga 2 rankings.
Burgos will now compete in the Copa del Rey, where they began the season with a 2-1 victory against Hercules on November 2, five weeks before losing 3-1 in the second round.
In other news, Mallorca were denied a fantastic start to the new year when they were defeated 1-0 by Real Madrid in La Liga on Wednesday.
Prior to that, Aguirre’s men were unbeaten in five league games, with two victories and three draws since late November.
Mallorca, who sit 14th in La Liga, will now focus on the Copa del Rey, where they have already beaten Borio and Valle de Egues while scoring seven goals and preserving two clean sheets.
