Team News
Mallorca
Athletic Club
- Mallorca's awful form continued in midweek as they followed up a 4-0 defeat by Levante last weekend with a 5-0 hammering at home by Sevilla.
- That extended the Islanders' run without a win in all competitions to 13 games, but with manager Joaquin Caparros insistent that he will not resign, he needs his players to produce a big performance against Athletic to save his job.
- A number of first-team regulars including Tomer Hemed and Victor will return after being rested in midweek, whilst Anderson Conceição could come in to partner Jose Nunes ahead of Pedro Geromel.
- Athletic also suffered a huge disappointment in the Copa del Rey this week as they were dumped out by Segunda Division B side Eibar.
- Their league form has picked up of late, though, and they have taken 10 points from the last possible 12 against opponent, excluding the games against Barcelona and Real Madrid.
- Andoni Iraola's continued absence means that Jonas Ramalho will keep his place at right-back, whilst Ander Iturrapse should replace Mikel San Jose in midfield as he returns from suspension.
- Iker Muniain though is expected to again only make the bench.
Dos Santos has 2 shots on target!!!

Why the last free kick of Gio Dos Santos was not a Shot on target?
