Prediction: 0-0
Real Sociedad
Athletic Bilbao and Real Sociedad go head to head at San Mames in a highly-anticipated Basque derby. The Lions quickly recover from the Copa del Rey elimination, with the team beating Espanyol at the weekend, and, no doubt, the triumph gave them a confidence boost. Pacey forward Nico Williams is widely expected to return to the starting XI after sealing the victory in Barcelona, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of Real Sociedad.
La Real, on the other hand, head into the local derby following a 2-0 win over Getafe. Since Imanol Alguacil’s troops are likely to rely on their rock-solid defence in Saturday’s showdown, we believe that there is a big value in betting on under 2.5 goals. Both Zubeldia and Zubimendi are back from suspension, while Umar Sadiq and Martin Merquelanz remain in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Iker Muniain):
Iker Muniain was once considered one of the most talented players in Spain, but he obviously failed to reach his full potential. Munian is an attacking midfielder, who is capable of playing as a forward as well and he began his youth career at Chantrea. In 2005 he made probably the best decision of his career as he joined Athletic Bilbao youth academy.
He made his debut for Athletic Bilbao on 30 July, 2009 in a 1-0 loss to Young Boys in the Europa League. Iker Munian impressed in the 2011/2012 La Liga campaign with the Lions, scoring nine goals in all competitions, but he failed to make a bigger progress. The Athletic Bilbao product has been struggling with injuries and it has to be noted that the injury he suffered against Sevilla on 4 April, 2015 could have ruined his career.
However, he returned to action on 20 December, but he was playing below expectations in the second half of the season. Iker Munian made his Spain debut on 29 February, 2012 in a friendly against Venezuela. La Roja won the match 5-0 and Munian came as a substitute in the 74th minute of the match.
