Looking at their previous La Liga head to head matchup, it ended with a 0-0 draw with Athletic Bilbao playing host in La Liga match day 1 back on last year.

Athletic Bilbao’s head coach Ernesto Valverde will have to stretch the squad after a plethora of injuries. Iñigo Martínez (Calf Strain), Iñigo Lekue (Hamstring Injury), Iker Muniain (Calf Injury) and Jon Morcillo (Collarbone fracture) are only a couple of the important pieces the spaniard will be missing this time around. On top of that, Athletic will be missing both Oier Zarraga and Mikel Vesga due to suspension.

 

As for Mallorca, they have almost everyone up for selection outside of Giovanni González thanks to a knee injury.
