Athletic Bilbao welcomes Barcelona for the Copa del Rey. The match will take place today at 22:00 at the Estadio San Mamés in Bilbao. On January 16, Athletic Bilbao played against Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final. The Basques showed their value but did not succeed and lost 2-0. Athletic Bilbao has managed to win the Spanish Cup (Copa del Rey) 24 times.
On the other hand, Barcelona played in the Super Cup, but was eliminated from the semifinals, losing to Real Madrid 3-2. As for the Copa del Rey, they have only played one game this year, and they faced Deportivo Linares who won 1-2. Five of Barcelona's six previous matches in the cup ended with Over 2,5 goals, but against Athletic Bilbao it is not so easy to score many goals.
