Mallorca, Recent FormThe 3-2 away defeat to Granada will not have sat easily with the Mallorca squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They achieved 47% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Granada's tally of 10 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Javier Aguirre will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 8 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games.
They have been on a decent run of form lately at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix, going undefeated in 5 of their previous 6 games there and notching up 4 wins along the way.
Athletic Bilbao, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 4-2 home win over Real Betis in their last league game, Athletic Bilbao will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They came away from that fixture with a 47% share of the possession and clocked up 14 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Real Betis, who managed 7 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 8, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
With 3 defeats and just 2 wins from their last 6 outings, this cannot be regarded as a good run of form.
Iñaki Williams will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Mallorca in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Athletic Bilbao.
In the most recent meeting between these teams, they both managed to find the net, but the game finished in a 1-1 draw.
Playing away from home, Athletic have scored in 2 of their last 3 league games against Mallorca.
The last 2 league meetings between these teams has ended with a share of the spoils but Athletic will be slighlty more concerned that they have not won this fixture in 3 games.
There is only really one injury concern for the Mallorca manager Javier Aguirre ahead of this clash, with Antonio Raíllo (Ankle) missing out, which gives Aguirre a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Ernesto Valverde has a number of injury concerns in his Athletic squad to contend with: Yeray Álvarez (Muscle), Óscar De Marcos (Sprained ankle) and Peru Nolaskoain (Thigh)
