Insights:
  • Mallorca have the fewest matches over the total-line (8) in La Liga
  • Athletic Club have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Athletic Club have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the La Liga.

Mallorca form and stats

7-4-4 (win-draw-lost) are the La Liga numbers at home for Mallorca so far this season.

No payout for Mallorca in their previous match, an away game at Atlético Madrid that ended in defeat 1-3. The first loss after going unbeaten through four league rounds. Rajković had a busy but productive day in the Atlético Madrid match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented. Nastasić was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.4 out of 10. The defender Nastasić scored one goal.

Ahead of that match, Mallorca won a home game hosting Getafe (3-1).

Trench warfare? Looking at this team's last 26 league games, 20 have had two goals or less.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Mallorca as they are travelling to their away game against Girona in the La Liga. That match is three days after this one.

The Mallorca fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 16 in 15 matches. Mallorca are not conceding a lot of goals here at Iberostar Estadi in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 11 from 15 matches.

Athletic Club form and stats

6-4-5 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Athletic Club in their La Liga matches away. Club have won three away matches in a row now and will not be intimidated by being the visitors in this fixture.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, the home defeat versus Sevilla with 0-1 on the scoreboard. That loss was their first after five consecutive league rounds winning points. Athletic Club were so close to getting something from the game against Sevilla, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal two minutes into overtime. García got a match rating of 7.35 in that game, top player of the team. García hit one key pass and had 33 successful passes (of 41 total).

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Almeria at their stadium, the result 2-1.

A new game in only three days for Athletic Club, the La Liga home match versus Real Betis. Busy days.

Club are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 22 away goals from 15 games (in the league). 19 goals have been conceded by Athletic Club in these games.
