Athletic Bilbao take on the visitors Huesca at the San Mames in the 2nd tour of La Liga. The match will be played in Bilbao on Monday, August 27th.
Last season Athletic Bilbao placed only 16th in La Liga. Los Leones totally failed but this season the team is aiming to improve their results. The team has had eleven friendly matches this summer, won five of them, drew three and lost also three. The Rojiblancos have always been known to play really good in front of their home crowd, they have had fourteen home fixtures in 2018, won five of them, drew four and lost five. However, the team had a horrible last season exactly because of constant failures in front of their home crowd. In their last three matches Athletic Bilbao beat Leganes with a 2-1 score, Augsburg with a 1-0 score and lost to Hannover with a 0-2 score.

Huesca placed 2nd in the Segunda Division and went through to La Liga last season. The team has had seven friendly matches this summer, won four of them and lost three. They have had eleven fixtures on the away side in 2018, won five of them, drew two and lost four. In their last three matches Huesca beat Eibar with a 2-1 score, Alaves with a 2-1 score and lost to Real Oviedo with a 1-2 score.
The teams faced each other only once in history and that was a friendly match in 2016 where they drew with a 1-1 score. However, the hosting side would be favourites in the lead-up to the upcoming fixture because of the home crowd advantage and the experience advantage.
Prediction for the match: Athletic Bilbao to win.
