Athletic Club and Sevilla Open La Liga Season

The clash between Athletic Club and Sevilla stirs up the start of the La Liga regular season. The match takes place at the San Mamés Barria stadium and pits two teams against each other with contrasting trajectories at the end of the previous campaign.

Teams' scenario for the duel

Athletic Club arrives for the season opener occupying tenth position. The Bilbao team had an irregular finish to last campaign, totaling two wins and three draws in their last five games, in addition to counting on the support of their fans.

On the other hand, Sevilla lands in the Basque Country in the opposite momentum. The Andalusian team finished in third place and accumulated four consecutive victories before stumbling in the final round.

Athletic Club faces serious problems in defense. Yeray Álvarez is suspended, while Daniel Vivian and Andoni Gorosabel appear as doubts, in addition to the absences of Maroan Sannadi and Unai Egiluz.

On the visiting side, Sevilla also suffers from important casualties. Isaac Romero and Kike Salas are serving suspensions, and Alfon González misses the team due to injury, limiting offensive options.

Head-to-head history

In the overall head-to-head record between the clubs, Athletic Club holds the advantage with dozens of victories recorded in the duel. This historical difference puts the Basques with a higher number of triumphs in the rivalry against the Andalusians.
