Match facts
- Real Madrid has won their last 13 home matches against Athletic Club in all competitions.
- In both home and away encounters, Los Blancos won four of their last five meetings.
- Zidane’s side is unbeaten in their last six Bernabeu games in La Liga (W5, D1).
- The away side has won only 39 points from the 32 games they have played so far, their worst tally since 2012-13.
Preview
Much to Athletic Club’s despair, Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale should return to the lineup for Wednesday’s game. Both were rested in their weekend victory over Malaga but are likely return to the lineup.
It is the Portuguese ace that the visitor should fear in particular. His unrivaled form in 2018 has helped Los Blancos rack up the wins, scoring 25 goals in his last 14 appearances for the Spanish giant.
The Madrid giant will not be in action this coming weekend, which means this will be their last game before their highly-anticipated Champions League clash with Bayern Munich. As a result, losing at home would only hurt their confidence.
Fortunately for Real Madrid, their opponent is a struggling Athletico Club side.While the Basque club is currently 12 points clear of the relegation zone, this has been a disappointing season for the club.
With six games remaining, European football appears unattainable for José Ángel Ziganda’s men. Getting a point at the Bernabeu would be a positive, but the stats don’t favor the away side grabbing a point.
