Team News

Athletic Club
Valencia
  • Athletic's Ernesto Valverde remains without Unai Simon, Aitor Paredes, and Inigo Ruiz de Galarreta.
  • Nico Williams, who skipped Monday's training due to a muscle issue from the Barcelona match, is uncertain for the upcoming home game.
  • On a positive note, Alvaro Djalo is progressing in his recovery and might be included in Wednesday's squad.
  • Goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala is vying for his first season appearance after recovering from injury.
  • Valencia are still missing Jose Gaya, Mouctar Diakhaby, Jaume Domenech, Fran Perez, and Sergi Canos.
  • Giorgi Mamardashvili whose future is uncertain given Liverpool links, would start in goal.
  • Luis Rioja, recently acquired from Alaves, debuted as a substitute in the Celta defeat and could potentially start for Valencia

Prediction

  • Athletic Club, previously considered a potential Champions League contender, have had a lacklustre start to the season, drawing with Getafe and losing narrowly to Barcelona. Despite Oihan Sancet’s consistent scoring, they face a winless streak of 10 league matches against Barcelona.
  • Returning to San Mamés, where they have been unbeaten in 19 La Liga games, Athletic prepares to face Valencia. Valencia, after a disappointing end to the last season and a poor start this season, seek their first win since April.
