Betting suggestion:

Despite the opposite positions in the last league, this match has a great tendency to be balanced, as Athletic Bilbao plays with the support of their fans and Barcelona has one of the best seedlings of the competition. Thus, we believe it will provide us with a very open match and with many situations of real danger, something that has happened in the last confrontations between these two teams. So, and also taking into account the playing styles of the two emblems, betting on goals in this match is an excellent option.

Preview
Athletic Club and Barcelona face at San Mamés Barria, in a match for the 1st round of the Primera División. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the away team, since they have a record of 5 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in the last 8 matches. However, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 10‑02‑2019, in a match for the Primera División they tied (0‑0). The home advantage may play an important role in this match , since Athletic Club presents significant differences between home and away results.

Analysis Athletic Club

The home team makes its debut in this edition of the competition, after having finished 8th last season. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 9 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss at their stadium. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got an away win against Mirandés by (1‑2). In the last 10 home matches Athletic Club has won 6 and tied 4. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In the last 5 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 6 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Athletic Bilbao comes for this match after a 1-2 win against Mirandés, in a preparation match for their next official matches. We remember that the home team made a reasonable Spanish championship last season, finishing in 8th place with 53 points. Coach Gaizka Garitano must play in 4-3-3 favoring defensive organization and counterattacking through the flanks: Iker Muniain is very fast and very strong in carrying the ball to the attack. Spaniard Iñaki Williams has been the top scorer in Athletic Bilbao in this competition with 13 scored goals. In doubt for this first match are Ibai Gomez and Martínez.

Confirmed Lineup: Unai Simon, De Marcos, Capa, Unai Núñez, Yeray, Yuri, Unai López, Dani García, Raúl García, Muniain, Williams.
Coach: M. García Toral.

Analysis Barcelona

The away team makes its debut in this edition of the competition, after having finished 1st last season. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 27 goals scored and 15 conceded; against 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 31 goals scored and 11 conceded. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got an away win against Napoli by (0‑4). In the last 10 away matches Barcelona has won 5, tied 3 and lost 2. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Barcelona comes for this match after a great 0-4 win against Napoli, in preparation for the next official matches: goals were scored by Griezmann, Suarez (2) and Dembélé. Last season, the Catalans managed to win the Spanish championship title. Unsurprisingly, the coach Ernesto Valverde should keep the team in 4-3-3 favoring the maintenance of ball possession and organized attacks, especially through the right flank: Dembélé is very fast and competent in carrying the ball to the attack. Last league scorer, Lionel Messi with 36 scored goals, is in doubt for this match due to injury. In addition to this athlete, the coach also has Neto in doubt.

Confirmed Lineup: Marc-André ter Stegen, Sergi Roberto, Jordi Alba, Clément Lenglet, Nélson Semedo, Gerard Piqué, Aleñà, Frenkie de Jong, Ousmane Dembélé, Antoine Griezmann, Luis Suárez.
Coach: X. Hernández.
