Athletic Bilbao, Recent FormAthletic Bilbao manager Ernesto Valverde will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 0-0 draw in his team's last league outing against Cadiz. They came away from that fixture with 58% of the possession and clocked up 8 attempts on goal with 0 on target. By comparison, Cadiz managed 9 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
Valverde will be pleased with his team's performances recently, having only conceded 2 in their last 6 games, while still managing to score a respectable 7 goals. They've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 matches, and playing at home this season, they have scored in 10 of their 11 games.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 5 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 10 games.
On an individual basis, Iñaki Williams will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Athletic Bilbao's last 6 league games.
Mallorca, Recent FormThe Mallorca squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 home defeat against Real Betis, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 53%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 1 of which were on target. Real Betis had 8 shots on goal with 2 on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 5 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 6 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. Of their last 6 games played away from home, they've have been unable to score in 5 games and only kept 1 clean sheet.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 8 games.
On an individual basis, Vedat Muriqi will be looking to cause Athletic Bilbao some problems having scored 3 goals in Mallorca's last 6 away games in the league.
The last time these two sides met, it wasn't one to remember, finishing without a goal and both sides taking just a point for their efforts.
Athletic have managed to keep a clean sheet against Los Bermellones in each of their previous 2 meetings at The Estadio San Mamés.
It has been a share of the points the last 3 times these sides have met in the league, with the game ending in a draw on both occasions; that said, Athletic may be feeling slightly more positive, having built up a run of 3 matches undefeated against their opponents.
With only Álex Berenguer (Hamstring) and Iñigo Ruiz de Galarreta (Physical discomfort) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Ernesto Valverde will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Mallorca manager Javier Aguirre ahead of this clash, with Pablo Maffeo (Knee) missing out, which gives Aguirre a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
