Elche will be aiming to recover from a 3-1 loss to Deportivo Alaves when they welcome Athletic Club to their Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero. Los Franjiverdes made a promising start to the season, but their performance in the last league match is not giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of upcoming challenges. With defender David Affengruber missing out through suspension, home win should not be considered. Grady Diangana is sidelined with a muscle injury.
Meanwhile, the Lions are boosted by Nico Williams’ return from injury and given Elche’s aforementioned absentees, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Ernesto Valverde’s troops. Uni Eguliuz continues to miss out with injury, while fellow defender Oihan Sancet is unlikely to recover in time to face Elche. You should know that Athletic Bilbao outplayed Elche 4-1 in their last meeting at the venue.
This Primera Division match will be played on Sunday 19 October 2025 at 13:00.
