Athletic Club hoping to seal fifth-place finish in penultimate game.
In a crucial La Liga clash, Athletic Club aims to seal a fifth-place finish at home against struggling Sevilla on Sunday evening at San Mamés.
Athletic Club
Athletic Club sits in 5th place ahead of Sunday’s game against Sevilla, having suffered a 2-1 loss to Celta Vigo in the midweek round of fixtures. This defeat leaves Athletic with only one win in their last five La Liga games [DLWDL].
The Lions, with 62 points [17W, 11D, & 8L], are still mathematically at risk of being overtaken by 6th-placed Real Sociedad, who are six points behind. Finishing in fifth place remains the club’s objective when they host Sevilla on Sunday, with just one point needed to cement their place in this highly sought-after spot.
Having gone unbeaten at home in 17 La Liga games [11W, 6D, 0L], Athletic will aim to equal their record of 18 unbeaten home games, last achieved between January and December 1990 [10W, 8D, 0L]. However, Los Leones have won just three of their last 10 meetings with Sevilla in La Liga [3W, 2D, 5L], despite winning 10 of the previous 16 encounters [10W, 1D, 5L].
Ernesto Valverde is expected to deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation with Asier Villalibre in attack for this weekend’s penultimate game. As many as six players, including Gorka Guruzeta and Oihan Sancet, are ruled out of Athletic’s final home game.
Sevilla
An underwhelming campaign leaves Sevilla in 12th place on the La Liga table, right where they finished last term. The visitors suffered back-to-back defeats after a midweek 1-0 loss to Cadiz on Wednesday.
Having 41 points (10 wins, 11 draws, and 14 losses), Los Palanganas are only two points outside the top ten. With 10th-placed Getafe facing 11th-placed Alaves at the weekend, Sevilla will be hoping for a draw to increase their chances of finishing above 12th place.
The visitors have won their last two visits to San Mamés in La Liga and have a chance to win three straight away games against Athletic for only the second time in club history. However, after losing 2-0 in the reverse fixture, Sevilla could suffer a league double.
With two consecutive losses, equaling the number of defeats in their previous 13 league games, the visitors could face three defeats in a row. A 3-4-3 formation with Ocampos, Youssef En-Nesyri, and Dodi Lukébakio in attack is expected.
Isaac Romero and Érik Lamela are both ruled out of the weekend’s clash.
