Mallorca vs Athletic Bilbao Predictions and Free Betting Tips from expert tipsters when they go head-to-head in the Spanish La Liga on Saturday, 03 September 2023.
Mallorca are set to host Athletic Bilbao at Iberostar Stadium for their upcoming league fixture. Mallorca enter the contest following a string of subpar performances. They sit 17th in the table after a 3-2 defeat to Granada in their previous league match.
Their opponents, Athletic Bilbao, come into the game with a pair of excellent results. They remain fifth in the standings following a 4-2 win over Real Betis last time out.
The last time these two clubs met was in May. The match ended in a 1-1 draw that day.
Athletic Bilbao has only lost this fixture once in the last 12 meetings between the two teams. They have also won this fixture on seven of those occasions.
We are counting on Athletic Bilbao to pull off a win here. They have an excellent form heading into this one. Their last two matches have both resulted in wins.
Mallorca, on the other hand, are currently struggling for form. Their past two matches have both ended in defeats.
Moreover, Athletic Bilbao has a fine h2h record in the recent history of this matchup.
We expect goals in this match. Mallorca has been allowing goals at a high rate in recent encounters, the most recent of which also saw over 2.5 goals. Also, Athletic Bilbao has scored six goals in their last two matches.
By the looks of things, a high-scoring affair is expected this time out.
Neither of these two teams has had a solid defensive record in recent weeks. The hosts have failed to keep clean sheets in each of their three league matches this season. While the visitors have conceded four goals in their three league matches.
Thus, the chances are quite high for goals to come from either end of the pitch.
Athletic Bilbao have excellent form heading into the match. Their last two matches have both ended in victories. They also have a great recent record against Mallorca. Furthermore, Mallorca has had a poor form going into the match.
A victory for Athletic Bilbao at 2.37 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.
Furthermore, the both teams to score odds of 2.05 look very attractive. Given both clubs’ poor defensive performances and recent goal participation at both ends of the game.
