Mallorca and Athletic Bilbao Face Off in Pursuit of Top Half Finish
Key Stats
– Athletic Bilbao have seen both teams score in three consecutive away games.
– Mallorca boasts an impressive run of just one defeat in ten home games.
Mallorca have the opportunity to end the season in the top half of La Liga, which will be a great achievement for a club of their size and their best result in over a decade. They have been in very good form recently, recording six wins in ten home games, and this has been possible thanks to the work done by manager Javier Aguirre, who has built a team with a very strong defence.

Recently, however, they have struggled to keep up with that solidity and have seen both teams scoring in three of their last five matches, and also in six of their previous ten outings. Even if they have conceded goals frequently, with only two clean sheets in their last 11 matches, Mallorca have been effective in attack, having drawn a blank only in three of their last ten games. On Monday evening, they will be confident that this trend will continue and are likely to score against Athletic Bilbao.
Bilbao Aiming to Rebound from Sevilla Defeat
The visitors are heading to the Spanish island, keen to bounce back after suffering a 1-0 defeat at home to Sevilla. Before that encounter, Bilbao were doing well, having scored in five consecutive matches. Away from home, they have also been very effective in attack, having netted twice in their last three outings, all of which have seen both teams to score.
Ernesto Valverde’s team also needs to improve defensively, as both teams have scored in four of their previous seven fixtures in all competitions. On the basis of these considerations,
When it comes to the correct score, I would go for a 2-1 Athletic Bilbao. As mentioned, both are pretty consistent when it comes to scoring goals and generally have similar strengths and weaknesses, but Athletic have that additional quality that might give them a small edge against a Mallorca side that seems to be rather satisfied with the achievements made already this season.
