The visitors from Madrid are undefeated in their recent eight head-to-heads with the hosts of the match, taking seven wins and one draw. However, results shown by both teams this season suggest that Athletic Bilbao have great chances to improve this record and at least avoid defeat in the match with the team that isn’t confident in recent away matches.
