Athletic Bilbao have put out a flurry of mixed performances since the start of this campaign and as such currently sit 8th place in the Spanish division having accumulated 20 points from their 14 encounters thus far. The Basque side have been let down by a defensive unit that's already conceded more times (17) than goals they've scored themselves this campaign (14). Their latest fixture saw them put two unreplied goals past Levante away from home.
Real Madrid
WDDWD
Real Madrid come into this fixture without a victory in three straight La Liga games. They played out a goalless stalemate with Rayo Vallecano just before the international break and have followed it up with similar outcomes against Elche (2-2) and Girona more recently (1-1). Their only positive result came when they took a narrow victory over Olympiacos in the UEFA champions league. Los Blancos have now fallen down to 2nd place in the division with 33 points from 14 games.
Prediction
Real Madrid will be keen to put behind a difficult run of form by avoiding defeat in this tie.
