Athletic Club vs Mallorca: Prediction

Athletic Club will look to finish in top half of the table this season, after a dissapointing bottom half finish last season. Visitors Real Mallorca is in great shape coming into the game having performed well in their last two games.

Athletic Club will be without Yuri and Peru Nolaskoain after having their operations for the respective injuries. Striker Oihan Sancet is a slight doubt after his knee injury but is expected to start the game against Mallorca. The home team has more than enough quality to see off their opponents Mallorca but it will not be an easy game at all. We predict a narrow win for Athletic Club.
