Athletic wants to stay in Europe during the Osasuna visit

MADRID, 8 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –

Athletic Club seeks this Monday in San Mamés (9:00 p.m.), in the last game of the sixteenth day of LaLiga Santander, to stay in European positions against Osasuna, which aspires precisely to get closer to the continental zone after two consecutive defeats.

Ernesto Valverde’s men (25), who began the day in fifth place and were displaced to sixth by Villarreal’s win against Real Madrid (2-1), said goodbye to 2022 with a draw against Real Betis ( 0-0) and inaugurated 2023 advancing to the Copa del Rey round of 16 after beating Eldense (1-6).

Now, they hope to score points for the third consecutive date without the presence of central defender Iñigo Martínez, out due to plantar fasciitis, but with Ander Capa, recovered from an acute stiff neck.

Opposite, the Navarrese (23), two units from Bilbao, want to leave behind the last league defeats against Barça (1-2), before the World Cup, and against Real Sociedad (2-0), in the farewell to the last year, to return as soon as possible to European positions.

For this, Jagoba Arrasate will not be able to count on Unai García, who will have to complete his cycle, nor with the injured Nacho Vidal and Rubén García, who will join Kike Saverio on the list of absences, out by technical decision.
