The La Liga fixture at Power Horse Stadium on Monday will see home team UD Almería fighting it out with opponents Athletic Bilbao, so let’s look at the latest injury news and predicted line ups.
UD Almería will be hoping to bounce back here following a 2-1 La Liga loss in their previous game against Valencia. It seems likely that Almería could employ a 4-2-3-1 system for this game with Luis Maximiano, Marc Pubill, Edgar Gonzalez, Juan Brandariz, Alex Centelles, Dion Lopy, Iddrisu Baba, Sergio Arribas, Lucas Robertone, Largie Ramazani and Anthony Lozano.
Availability isn’t a big problem, with just the lone fitness concern for the UD Almería manager Gaizka Garitano to be concerned about from an otherwise complete group. Ibrahima Koné is sidelined.
How UD Almería might line up for the game against Athletic Bilbao
Athletic Bilbao will come into the encounter following a 0-1 Copa del Rey win to beat Atlético Madrid in their previous game. From our viewpoint, Los Leones will likely utilise a 4-2-3-1 lineup, choosing Unai Simon, Oscar de Marcos, Daniel Vivian, Yeray Alvarez, Yuri Berchiche, Benat Prados, Mikel Vesga, Inaki Williams, Oihan Sancet, Alex Berenguer and Asier Villalibre.
From a largely available group, there is just the sole fitness worry for the Athletic Bilbao boss Ernesto Valverde to be concerned with. Gorka Guruzeta (Muscle injury) won’t be in action.
