Great game, at least on paper, which takes place tonight in Bilbao. Athletic receives a visit from Betis with whom they are tied on points in the standings. Both Valverde and Pellegrini are also two coaches who are committed to attacking football.

A The lions, after starring in a spectacular campaign at home level during the past year, have had a hard time holding on to the San Mamés fort again, but little by little they are achieving it. After falling in stoppage time against Atlético de Madrid on the last day of August, the red and whites have won four games and tied one, also in extra time, in front of their fans.

NOr it is a bad time, therefore, to confirm this progression in one’s own field. Betis, at least as far as the domestic tournament is concerned, has not been characterized so far by its effectiveness as a visitor. In his five league outings he has accumulated as many points, but three of them were added in his last outing

AHe parrots, therefore, with Pellegrini’s team. A team that suffers significant losses, but that has enough staff to put together the cue in any stadium it visits. Quality is not lacking and neither are high-level footballers.

RThe results rule and Athletic could use the three points tonight very well. There is a game in San Mamés. Return to the fort.
