Tonight you have a chance to enjoy the Spanish match-up between Athletic Bilbao and Barcelona. The hosting team currently sits in 9th position with a total of 33 points. The visitors from Catalonia on the other side are the leaders in LaLiga with a total of 62 points on their account.
Barcelona beat Atletico Bilbao in their head-to-head match this season. So tonight it’s going to be interesting to see if the boys from Bilbao will manage to avenge Barcelona at Estadio San Mamés.
Athletic Club
The Red and Whites till now managed to win 9 duels, followed by 6 draws, and 9 defeats. Unfortunately, after beating Cadiz (4:1) and Valencia (1:2), Athletic Bilbao lost to Atletico Madrid (1:0) and Girona (2:3). These bad results were followed by defeat in Copa Del Rey semi-finals against Osasuna (1:0). Anyhow, in the previous round Athletic Bilbao visited Rayo Vallecano and performed a goalless match.
But tonight, they must show their best in order to avoid losing the match against the league’s leaders.
FC Barcelona
Barca is on a very good path to winning the title this season. They just need to sustain their form at a high level and recover quickly after occasional bad performances. So far Barcelona won 20 games, and also added 2 draws and 2 losses. Their last defeat was against Almeria by 1:0. But Barca bounced back right away by beating Real Madrid (0:1) in Copa Del Rey’s semi-finals and Valencia in the previous LaLiga round by 1:0.
So tonight they will set another attacking formation and go for the 21st LaLiga victory for the season.
