Athletic Bilbao take on the visitors Barcelona in the round 2 match of Spanish Primera. The match takes place at San Mames Stadium on Sunday, August 28th.
Athletic Bilbao disappointed their fans in the first match of the season, losing away clash to Sporting Gijon. Basque’s side had unquestionable advantage in possession but couldn’t convert their chances to goals. Still, that failure doesn’t cancel teams’ objective of at least repeating last season results. We should remind that the team from Basque Country finished fifth last season and advanced for Europa League group stage.

Barcelona continue showing excellent results at the start of the season. The Catalans beaten Sevilla in the Spanish Supercup, 2-0, 3-0, and won first round of new season in La Liga against another side from Sevilla, Betis, 6-2. Barca are on impressive four-match undefeated run in away matches with 15-0 aggregate score.
Barcelona have advantage in the head-to-heads with Athletic. Bluagrana won five and drew one of their six matches against Basque side last season in Supercup, Primera and Cope del Rey. We should expect Luis Enrique’s men continue their exceptional run of results in matches on the road and take another win.
Prediction for the match: Barcelona to win.
