Athletic Club take on Mallorca in the 2024 Copa del Rey final on April 6.
Both sides have reached the final as dark horse candidates with Real Madrid and Barcelona both eliminated from the competition before the semifinal stage.
An unexpected final pairing has created a wave of excitement for both sets of supporters, with Athletic Club not winning the trophy since 1984, and they have since lost out in six finals.
