Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Athletic Club in 10th and Granada in 8th place.
- Athletic Club haven’t played a single 0-0 game.
- Granada have the most conceded goals (42) in La Liga
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Copa Del Rey match only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Levante.
Granada have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
