Preview

Athletic Bilbao, coached by Ernesto Valverde, have not started the season as well as expected. After a draw with Getafe and a defeat by Barcelona, ​​the Basques managed to get their first win against Valencia. However, the team has not yet demonstrated consistency in its play, which could be a problem against a more organized opponent. Athletic's main problems concern the low scoring rate, which is especially noticeable when converting chances. Atletico Madrid, coached by Diego Simeone, have started the season unbeaten, but have already lost points twice. The team is showing confident play, but the conversion of chances leaves much to be desired, which was especially evident in the matches against Espanyol and Villarreal. Atletico creates many dangerous moments, but does not always convert them, which could be a decisive factor in difficult matches, such as the upcoming meeting with Athletic.
