Athletic will receive a visit from Alavés this Saturday from 12 noon at the Lezama facilities. The derby is extremely interesting, since the slobbers arrive ahead of the rojiblancas. The team from Gasteiz, which opens this season in the Iberdrola League, is in fourth position with 21 points, one more than the Bilbao team, fifth in the table.
Those of Iraia Iturregi come from being thrashed against Barça at the Johan Cruyff. Athletic went to halftime with a scoreless draw, but received the first goal against a few minutes into the second half and from then on the superiority of the intractable leader of the category was imposed. The final 4-0 was the product of two late goals by the locals.
Alavés, meanwhile, got rid of Valencia at home after winning 3-1 against a team that struggles to escape from the relegation zone.
