Athletic Bilbao

The "red-and-whites" are having a splendid season, currently contending for a spot in the Champions League. After the completion of the 31st round, Ernesto Valverde's team sits in fifth place in the La Liga standings, boasting 57 accumulated points. They trail the Madrid-based Atletico by four points, while maintaining a seven-point lead over Real Sociedad, who occupy the sixth spot. In their last championship match, Athletic hosted Villarreal and played to a 1-1 draw. This draw marked the second consecutive point drop for the "lions," having previously lost away to Real Madrid.

Granada

The "Nasrids" appear to be struggling in the current La Liga campaign and are likely to exit the elite division by season's end. Presently, Granada sits second from the bottom, having amassed 17 points after 31 played rounds. They are trailing the safety zone by a significant margin of 11 points, although they managed to reduce this deficit after the latest matchday. In their previous fixture, Granada secured a 2-0 victory against Alaves at home, settling the outcome in the first half. Finding the net in the 9th minute from the penalty spot, Granada doubled their advantage through Lucas Boye's precise strike in the 38th minute. This win halted Granada's winless streak in La Liga, which had reached 11 matches.

Interesting match facts and head-to-head history:

• In the first round, the teams played to a 1-1 draw on Granada's turf.
• In the last five encounters between these sides, Athletic has secured just one victory, suffering defeats on two occasions.
• Both teams scored in three out of the last five matches.
