Mallorca vs Athletic Bilbao Predictions

• Both teams have scored in five of Bilbao’s last six league matches
• Both teams have scored in four of Mallorca’s last six league outings
• Mallorca have drawn four out of the last five matches against Athletic Bilbao

Score draw on the cards in Monday clash

Both Mallorca and Athletic Bilbao have amassed 17 points from ten games in La Liga and two in-form teams can serve up an entertaining fixture at the Estadi Mallorca Son Moix.

Mallorca have won four of their last five league matches and, while that includes 1-0 victories over Real Sociedad and Rayo Vallecano in their previous two home outings, both teams have scored in four of their last six top-flight fixtures.

Athletic Bilbao, on the other hand, have won four of their last six league matches and are full of confidence following an emphatic 4-1 success at home to Espanyol last time out.

It means that both teams have scored in five of their last six league matches and they have managed only two clean sheets in ten this season, so Mallorca will feel that they can compensate.

But the Basque-based visitors have lost only one of their last 15 meetings with Mallorca and are expected to pick up a positive result by the bookmakers.

But Mallorca have held Real Madrid to a 1-1 draw and pushed third-placed Villarreal hard in a 2-1 loss at home this season and they have plenty going for them in their familiar surroundings.

So correct-score punters may want to side with a 1-1 draw, given four of the last five meetings have ended all-square and two have finished that scoreline.
