Fixture: Athletic Club vs Atlético Madrid
Date: Saturday, 06 December 2025
Kick-off: 20:00 GMT
Venue: San Mamés Barria
Athletic Club's recent form suggests a team struggling for consistency, with losses against top teams like Barcelona. However, their victories against Levante and Oviedo indicate they can be competitive against mid-table sides. The absence of key players due to injuries and suspension could impact their attacking threat, but the predicted lineup shows a solid defensive structure that might help them contain Atletico Madrid's attack.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, have been in good form, with four wins in their last five games, including a strong performance against Sevilla. Their predicted lineup suggests a balanced team with a strong defensive core and creative options in midfield. Given their recent results and the quality of their squad, Atletico Madrid should have the edge in this match, but Athletic Club's home advantage could make it a close contest.
Athletic Club's recent form has been mixed, with two wins and three losses in their last five matches. Their latest victory against Levante on the road will provide a boost in confidence, but the heavy defeat to Real Madrid and losses to Real Sociedad and Barcelona suggest a lack of consistency that could impact their performance against a strong Atlético Madrid side.

Predicted lineup: Simón (GK), Lekue (DF), Vivian (DF), Laporte (DF), Boiro (DF), Rego (MF), Berenguer (MF), Jauregizar (MF), Galarreta (MF), Williams (if fit) (MF), Guruzeta (AT)
Athletic Club's predicted 4-1-4-1 formation suggests a focus on defensive solidity, with Unai Simón in goal and a back four of Lekue, Vivian, Laporte, and Boiro.

Atletico Madrid's predicted 4-2-3-1 formation indicates a balanced approach, with Jan Oblak in goal and a backline of Molina, Giménez, Lenglet, and Hancko. The midfield duo of Barrios and Cardoso will provide defensive stability, while Simeone, González, and Baena will look to create chances for the lone striker Julián Alvarez.
Gorka Guruzeta vs Nahuel Molina: Guruzeta's ability to hold up play and finish will be tested against Molina's defensive prowess.
Mikel Jauregizar vs Nico González: Jauregizar's control in midfield will be crucial against González's dynamic play.
Ruiz de Galarreta (Athletic Club): Galarreta's role in dictating the tempo and distributing the ball will be vital for Athletic Club.
