La Liga back at the Iberostar stadium, but later in the day - an 11pm kick-off. Hard to imagine a better start, Hemed putting Mallorca a goal up after just under two minutes, turning in the box and striking with the left foot, only for Espanyol to equalise three minutes later, Mallorca's left flank exposed by Wakaso who shot without Aouate moving.
Espanyol more content to sit in, Nunes went close with a header off the bar nine minutes into the second period, and Mallorca were in the ascendant, hitting the woodwork through a long-range effort by Pereira, followed up by Hemed knocking in the rebound for a second with five minutes left.
Encouraging start for Mallorca.

MALLORCA TODAY - Real Mallorca 1 : 0 Espanyol
The delayed start to this season's La Liga, so Mallorca's first game at home to Espanyol.
An even first half, but Mallorca shading it with more chances on goal. A quarter of an hour into the second half, De Guzmán put Mallorca ahead with a right-foot shot. Espanyol had the greater amount of possession through the second half but couldn't break down a resolute defence that lacks Nunes, as it will for some three months of this season at least. A generally poor game, though, between teams lacking goal scorers, as highlighted by the goal attempts by Mallorca without success. And as for the goalscorer, De Guzmán may well be on his way to Villarreal. Excellent start, nonetheless, for Mallorca.
