Prediction: 1-0
Eibar
San Mames Barria will host the Basque derby between Athletic Club and Eibar. Athletic Club have been showing signs of improvement in 2019 and it is more than obvious that they are determined to secure yet another La Liga survival. The Lions outplayed Barcelona in their last home game in the national championship, but they were more than unfortunate not to pick up all three points from the game. Anyhow, Athletic Club aim to move away from the danger zone and we predict that they are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s football game. Los Armeros head into the local derby following a 2-2 draw with Getafe at their Estadio Municipal de Butarque, but seeing that they often struggle on the travels, we are tempted to put our money on the Lions this time out. A man to watch in the home side will be Inaki Williams.

Highlighted Player (Aritz Aduriz):
Aritz Aduriz is another Spanish footballer that can be placed in the late bloomers category, having played his best football after the age of 30. The cultured striker has spent his entire career in native Spain, and he was showing promise from the moment he first tasted senior football.
The Basque forward arrived at Athletic Bilbao via Aurrera and Bilbao Athletic, but the first spell at San Mames proved quite disappointing and he went on to kick-start his career at Real Valladolid. Aduriz later returned to Athletic Bilbao to score 22 goals in 82 league outings, and then represented Mallorca and Valencia before returning for the third spell. Little did he know that it would prove to be the most successful stint of his career, with the forward producing some amazing displays in La liga and Europa League, scoring over 95 goals in first four years upon rejoining los Leones.
That proved enough for the striker to end a six-year exile from the national team as Aduriz featured in March 2016 friendlies vs Italy and Romania, scoring on his return against the Azzurri to prove age should not matter when the quality is there.
