In La Liga, Atletico Madrid has a two-game unbeaten streak. With a win, Los Rojiblancos might pass Athletic Bilbao and go ahead of the Basque club.
In their past six meetings, Athletic Bilbao has a winning record against Atletico. Throughout their past six matches with Atletico, the Lions recorded three victories, two draws, and only one defeat.
In all tournaments, the Lions faced Atletico Madrid three times in 2021–22. Throughout the three games, Athletic Club defeated Atletico Madrid 4-1 by winning two and drawing one.
The Lions have benefited greatly from Ernesto Valverde's techniques since he joined Athletic Bilbao in the winter. They have an eight-game record of 5W-2D-1L. With 16 goals scored and five goals allowed, the Lions earned 13 points out of the remaining 18 points available in La Liga.
In addition, Atletico Madrid collected 13 of the remaining 18 available points in the league. Throughout the past six games, they netted 11 goals while giving up five.
As Ander Herrera is banned from the game, Valverde will only be missing one player. The red card was given to the ex-Manchester United midfielder during Athletic's 1-1 draw with Sevilla last week. Valverde will be sorely missing Herrera.
Two of Diego Simeone's players will probably be missing from the match. Felipe Monteiro has a thigh muscle injury, while midfielder Marcos Llorente is out with a hamstring issue.
With 17, Athletic is third in the league in goals scored. With three goals each, Inaki Williams, Alex Berenguer, Oihan Sancet, and Nico Williams share the team lead.
Atletico Madrid's four goals from Alvaro Morata are the most in La Liga. As Atletico Madrid attempts to score goals against a very capable Athletic Club, he ought to start in the team's assault.
