Athletic Bilbao - Mallorca: Form Analysis
Athletic Club come into this final as the favorites and it’s hard to argue against that with the form they are in. They handled Atletico Madrid in the semi-finals, capping off their 4-0 aggregate win with an emphatic 3-0 home win in the return leg. Los Leones saw their four-match unbeaten run come to an end last weekend after falling 2-0 away from home to league leaders Real Madrid. The result saw Ernesto Valverde’s side drop out of the top four as they now sit fifth with a two point deficit on fourth-placed Atletico Madrid. It also snapped Athletic’s clean sheet run as they had previously gone 270 minutes since last picking the ball out of their own net. Athletic Club have been dominant on home soil this season (11-3-1 La Liga record) but will have to adapt to the neutral field here.
Mallorca’s dream run in the Copa del Rey continues on as they make the final for the first time since being crowned champions in 2002/03. They don’t have near the pedigree in this competition that their opponents have, but they’ll be confident of capturing the trophy nonetheless. Los Piratas squeezed past Real Sociedad by way of penalty shootout in the semi-finals after the two sides finished deadlocked in both legs (0-0, 1-1). They come into this cup final in a good vein of form with a 3-2-1 record in their last six matches across all competitions. Mallorca’s most recent outing was a 0-0 away draw with Valencia. The point earned has the one-time Copa del Rey champions sitting six points above the relegation zone in La Liga.

Athletic Bilbao & Mallorca Squad Analysis
The main news around the Athletic Bilbao camp has been the fitness of electric winger Nico Williams. The 21-year-old Spain international's involvement in this final is expected to be touch-and-go right up until kickoff. The Basque club could also be without starting center back Yeray after playing just 25 minutes against Real Madrid last weekend and having to be subbed off early. Expect Nico and Iñaki Williams to take up the wings (should the former be fit) with talented young midfielder Oihan Sancet playing the #10 role. Gorka Guitierez should lead the line here and is in fine form with five goals in his last six games.
On the other side, Mallorca manager Javier Aguirre will be without his usual number one goalkeeper Predrag Rajkovic through suspension. However, backup Dominik Greif has been the cup goalkeeper for the team throughout this run and will get the start on Saturday. The only other absences for Aguirre will be midfielder Omar Mascarell. The danger man for the underdogs will be center forward Abdon Prats, who has shined in this tournament with six goals from seven appearances. Prats is Mallorca’s leading scorer this season with 11 goals in 33 competitive fixtures.
