Athletic Club face Elche at San Mames, Bilbao on Sunday, Sep 13 at 3:00 PM in a basement battle that neither side can afford to lose. Both clubs are deep in the relegation picture in the LaLiga, and defeat here could prove costly come the end of the season.
Athletic Club come into this fixture in mixed form (0W 0D 1L). Elche, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (0W 1D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.
History strongly favours Athletic Club here — they've won 5 of 10 previous meetings against Elche, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Athletic Club won 2–1.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Athletic Club a slight edge, but Elche are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
