Barca are -200 favorites (risk $200 to win $100) on the 90-minute money line in the latest Mallorca vs. Barcelona odds, while Mallorca are +500 underdogs.

Here are Sutton's best bets for Mallorca vs. Barcelona on Saturday:
- Barcelona -1.5 (+130)
- Lamine Yamal to score or assist (+100)
Barca are 16-2-0 against Mallorca going back to the 2009 season, and have outscored the hosts 12-2 over the last five meetings. That includes a 5-1 victory when these teams last met at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix last season. "Barcelona picked up a 1-0 win at home over Mallorca in April, holding the visitors without a single shot on target," Sutton said. "Barca cruised to a 5-1 win in the reverse fixture last season, and are coming off a comfortable 5-0 victory against Como in the Joan Gamper Trophy Final last Sunday." This bet is priced at +135 odds at DraftKings, where you can get over $200 off NFL Sunday Ticket plus get $200 in bonus bets instantly when you bet $5 using the latest DraftKings promo code:
Lamine Yamal to score or assist (+100)The forward scored nine goals in 31 starts last season while also picking up 13 assists, and the expert believes the addition of Marcus Rashford to the roster will open up more scoring opportunities for Yamal. "Yamal scored a brace in the 5-0 win over Como and will be a problem going forward all season, so I'm backing him to either score or provide an assist in the league opener," Sutton said.
