Match Facts:
Athletic Club (7th, 38 pts):
- The Basque outfit are in fine spirits following on from their 3-0 victory at Valencia CF. Last week also saw Ernesto Valverde's men book their place in the Europa League quarter-finals, where they'll once again face Los Che.
- In the reverse fixture, Athletic were just a minute away from claiming victory. With the visitors leading 2-1, Alejandro Arribas popped up to net an 89th-minute equaliser.
RC Deportivo (10th, 32 pts):
- Deportivo are having a tough time of things right now and Victor Sanchez del Amo's men are in desperate need of halting a dismal run which has seen them go 10 games without a win. Last time out they were on the receiving end of a 1-0 home defeat to Granada CF.
- The Galicians have picked up 16 points on the road this term, courtesy of three wins, seven draws and three defeats.
