Mallorca vs Athletic Bilbao: The Basques are going to have a tough time

Mallorca will play host to Athletic in round 24 of the Spanish championship. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Mallorca has lost two games in a row after beating Espanyol in the Spanish Cup. First, they lost 0:3 to Villarreal and then to Rayo Vallecano with a score of 0:1. However, Mallorca made amends for their two defeats and beat Cadiz (2:1) in the last round. In the table, they are a step away from the relegation zone. They are 17th with 23 points, three ahead of Alaves, who are already in the danger zone but have also played two fewer games.

Athletic has performed at their best in recent matches. They have only lost in ten games (0:2 to Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final). But since then, they beat Rayo Vallecano 1:0 and Espanyol 2:1 in La Liga, Barcelona 3:2 after extra time and Real Madrid 1:0 in the Spanish Cup and a 1:1 draw with Valencia. In the standings, Athletic are eighth with 34 points, two points behind the Eurocup zone.

We don't think we can write Mallorca off prematurely. Atletico is strong, but it's no secret that they are better at home. Mallorca has been excellent at home, with only two defeats in 12 games this season, one of which came against Barcelona (0:1). The meeting will likely end in a draw, but we'll choose a home team not to lose as our main bet. Prediction: Mallorca won't lose + Total Under (4.5).
