In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against FC Barcelona, by (4‑0). In the last match, they won in an away match against Levante, by (0‑2).

Athletic Club comes into this match on the back of a 2-0 away win at Levante, with goals from Nico Williams and Robert Navarro. Ernesto Valverde's side is expected to stick with its usual 4-3-3 formation, relying on a vertical style of play and lethal transitions in attack. Up front, the trio of Gorka Guruzeta, Nico Williams and Unai Gómez promises to cause problems for any defence, combining speed, creativity and a nose for goal. Oihan Sancet and Yeray Álvarez are suspended for this match, while Aymeric Laporte, Robert Navarro and Beñat Prados are injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Unai Simón, Adama Boiro, Dani Vivian, Aymeric Laporte, Iñigo Lekue, Alejandro Rego, Mikel Jauregizar, Iñigo Ruiz de Galarreta, Álex Berenguer, Gorka Guruzeta, Nico Williams.
