Athletic stay in 8th position after they drew 1-1 at Malaga last weekend. The hosts are a team with good discipline and endurance, who have some talented young players in the squad, especially in the attack. Their main star is the talented forward Fernando Llorente. Athletic are strong especially at home at San Mames. They will be confident and try to get at least one point against one of the league favourites.  Real are in 2nd place on 41 points, two points behind Barcelona. In the last round Madrid won 2-0 over Mallorca at Santiago Bernabeu. They played in this match as a team and had many chances at goal. Saturday‘s game won’t be easy as Athletic have the tactics which have already disturbed Real in their plans. The visitors want to win, but they know they will face a strong team who will be determined to pick up at least one point at home. Despite that, Real want to take all three points today.  Over 2,5 goals is the best pick for me.
