Atleti host Athletic Club in a big LaLiga fixture on Saturday. The game is to kick off at 4.15pm CET.
Simeone’s men earned a last-minute win in an epic clash at Espanyol in the previous LaLiga matchday. Carrasco and Lemar – in the 99th minute – provided the goals. That victory allowed us to reach 10 points in the competition out of a possible 12. Ángel Correa is so far our top scorer with three goals.
On the other hand, Athletic Club are fifth after picking up two wins and two draws. Marcelino’s side are currently unbeaten thanks to their defensive strength – they have the best defensive record in the competition alongside Sevilla with just one goal conceded.
The last time we faced Athletic Club at the Wanda Metropolitano, we won 2-1 thanks to the goals from Suárez and Llorente. Muniain had previously scored for the visitors.
