Markel Susaeta is injured and out for sure for Athletic Bilbao, while Iker Muniain is doubtful, but not a serious troubles and he should start. Mikel Rico and Mikel San Jose picked up their fifth yellow cards for the season, so they are suspended for one game. Valladolid will be in this visit without Alcatraz, who is injured and Alvaro Rubio, who is suspended. Patrick Ebert and Heinz are both doubts, but may be both will miss, because their coach will not risk with them.
Match facts:
In the first meeting this season Athletic Bilbao beat Valladolid with 2-1. In the last 5 years there was 8 head to head matches in all competitions, including friendlies - 1 victory for Valladolid (in 2009), 3 for Bilbao and 4 draws. Here on San Mames Bilbao won the last 5 games against Valladolid - 3-2, 2-0, 2-0, 2-0 and 2-0.
Probable lineups:
Athletic Bilbao - Iraizoz, Balenziaga, Gurpegi, Laporte, Iraola, Iturraspe, Benat, Muniain, Ander, Marcos, Aduriz
Valladolid - Marino, Rukavina, Rueda, Valiente, Pena, Rossi, Perez, Bergdich, Gonzalez, Ramos, Guerra
Prediction:
Athletic Bilbao are great this season so far and fourth in the table after 11-3-5 (32-24). In the last round they won vs Almeria at home with 6-1, while in the midweek beat Betis in Copa del Rey with 2-0. Great performance at home in La Liga and 8-2-0 balance (23-9), also 6 wins in a row on San Mames in all tournaments. Valladolid are 18th in the table after 3-7-9 (21-33). In the last round they lost away at home vs Granada with 0-4. Really bad performance in the last weeks and only 1 draw in the last 4 fixtures. In the visits a lot of difficulties and 4 loses in a row - 0-4 vs Real Madrid, 1-3 vs Rayo Vallecano, 2-4 vs Espanyol and 0-4 vs Granada, so I expect fifth lose in a row in the trips for them.
