END MATCH Atletico Madrid 3–2 Athletic Bilbao
Atletico Madrid will play host to Athetic Bilbao at the Wanda Metropolitano on Saturday afternoon, seeking to make it nine games unbeaten in La Liga.
Diego Simeone's side are fresh from beating Borussia Dortmund 2-0 in the Champions League, a win which went some way to restoring pride from their 4-0 defeat in the same fixture a fortnight ago.
Atletico's injury crisis deepened midweek, when both Jose Gimenez and Lucas Hernandez picked up issues during the Champions League clash. This leaves the club with no recognised centre back left in the squad - thus youth star Francisco Montero is expected to come in, alongside a shoe-horned full back, such as Santiago Arias.
