How to Watch Atletico Madrid vs. Athletic Bilbao: Stream La Liga Live, TV Channel

A crunch clash in La Liga will see third face fourth as Atletico Madrid hosts Athletic Bilbao on Saturday. Watch the game free on Fubo.

Atletico Madrid will be on a mission to keep up its threat on La Liga’s summit this Saturday when it okays host to Athletic Bilbao, who has machinations of its own in the hunt to lock down a Champions League spot. Third-place Atleti has lost just one of its last 25 fixtures across all competitions and could still end this season by winning a treble after advancing in both the Copa del Rey and Champions League. Athletic remains in the running for the Europa League crown and isn’t technically out of La Liga’s chase just yet, though a win on Saturday would go a long way to cutting the six-point gap to leader Barcelona.

Los Leones travel to the Riyadh Air Metropolitano having gone undefeated in six games, knowing a win in the capital would take them within just two points of third-place Atleti.

Ernesto Valverde’s men are in the mood, too, after celebrating their biggest win of the campaign to date in a 7-1 pummelling of last-place Real Valladolid last time out.

Atletico romped to a 3-0 victory away to Valencia last weekend, where Julian Alvarez continued his strong debut season in Madrid by bagging a brace for Diego Simeone’s side.

Los Rojiblancos then struck twice in the dying minutes to salvage a 4-4 goal away to Barcelona in the first leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final on Tuesday:

Marcos Llorente and Alexander Sorloth each netted in the space of nine minutes to leave Atletico level with Barca ahead of the return leg in five weeks, the winner of which will face either Real Madrid or Real Sociedad in the grand final.

Athletic has won three of its last five meetings with Atletico but hasn’t won an away league game in this fixture since 2011, having gone more than a month since its last road victory in La Liga more than a month ago.
