Mallorca is coming into this match having won their last game, but before that, they had a run of draws and a loss. They have been finding it hard to get a win consistently. Athletic Club's recent form has been mixed, with a win, a draw, and a couple of losses in their last few matches, so they have also been a bit up and down.

When these two teams met earlier in the season, it was a close game with a few goals, and Athletic Club came out on top. Based on how both teams have been performing lately, this looks like it could be another tight and competitive match.
