Athletic Bilbao midfielder Pablo Orbaiz says today's game against Mallorca is their biggest of the season.
"The Mallorca match is the biggest game so far because if we lose, then things will become a lot worse for us," Orbaiz said.
"We are on quite a good run having picked up eleven points from 15 possible but we cannot lie to ourselves. We are still just three points off the relegation zone and we have a calendar ahead of us which is not easy.
"We know what we have to do, we need to pick up three points against Mallorca and if we get those then we can take a breath of fresh air but we still need to get those first.
"It will not be easy in order to reach safety but we will have to fight that little bit harder and pick up victories that beforehand people would not expect.
"All the matches here will be vital and you do not know who you will beat as you can end up having difficulties in games which you feel are easier."
