Mallorca have been impeccable in the league games on the home patch since the World Cup break.
They will be looking for the fifth consecutive home win on Saturday afternoon as the rock-bottomed Elche come to visit Palma de Mallorca.
Elche are already one foot into Segunda Division as only a miracle can keep them alive in the elite class by the end of the campaign.
The visitors played a crazy five-goal thriller against Real Betis last weekend. It was a match in which Elche dropped an early two-goal lead by getting two men sent off and giving as many as three penalties to the rivals.
Obviously, Betis just had to take advantage of the gifts and complete the comeback late in the game at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero.
Elche now have four defeats in the last five league games. They sit firmly at the bottom of the standings with 15 points between them and the safe zone.
It is worth noting that Elche have by far the worst defensive record in the competition with 48 goals conceded in 23 games so far in the season.

马洛卡在世界杯后的主场联赛中表现无可挑剔。
他们将在周六下午寻求主场五连胜，因为最低点的埃尔切将做客帕尔马德马略卡。
埃尔切已经进入了第二梯队，只有奇迹才能让他们在战役结束时留在精英阶层。
上周末，客队在对阵皇家贝蒂斯的比赛中疯狂地打进5球。在这场比赛中，埃尔切两个人被罚下，并给对手3个点球，在两球领先的情况下失去了优势。
显然，贝蒂斯不得不利用这份礼物，在巴莱罗球场完成了比赛后期的逆转。
埃尔切在最近五场联赛中输了四场。他们稳稳地排在积分榜的最后，距离安全区域有15分。
值得注意的是，到目前为止，埃尔切的防守记录是联赛中最差的，本赛季到目前为止，他在23场比赛中丢了48球。
