Athletic has started the season fighting against the scoring deficit. It is difficult for him to do them, he has remained without scoring in three of his five league games played, and has also conceded in four of them. The conclusion is that it is in the red, like nine other First teams, in the case of the lions with a deficit of -1. La Real leads the positive table with +8 and Celta the negative with -6.
Things did not start well in Granada for those of Garitano, which conceded a 2-0 Los Cármenes. The impacts of the Nasrid ensemble were borne by Herrera and Milla. They already started with two at the bottom. In the second game, they cut one with the double of Unai lopez in Ipurua, in the victory (1-2) against Eibar for which he scored Kike Garcia.
Later, they hooked two days in a row with losses. Against Cádiz in San Mamés (0-1) with both in their own goal Unai lopez, and in Mendizorroza against Alavés (0-1) with a score of He and.
Finally, in their fifth meeting of the campaign, the lions managed to Unai Simon leave his clean sheet (2-0) against Levante, with the successes of Berenguer and Williams. The balance now is therefore four goals scored and five conceded.
The biggest defaulter is Celta (-6) with a 3-9 card, followed by Alavés and Levante, the last two rivals of the lions with (-5), with 3-8 and 5-10, respectively. Meanwhile, the podium of the positives is commanded by Real, with eight goals in their balance (10-2), with Atlético de Madrid (7) in the second step after an 8-1 and Barça (6) in the third, with an 8-2.
As a point, we must put on the table that the Osasuna of Jagoba Arrasate, the host of the rojiblancos this Sunday in El Sadar accumulates a favorable goal, after having scored five and conceding four.
It should be remembered that in the last 2019-20 season, Athletic closed the year with a small surplus, with 41 goals in favor and 38 against. And the previous 2018-19 with a slight debt, with 41 targets made and 45 received. The same as in 2017-18, with 41 goals for and 49 against.
