When Athletic Bilbao travels to rival Basque team Alaves on Friday night, they will be looking to keep up their good run of play.
With 10 points from their first five games, the visitors are presently fourth in the La Liga standings, while Alaves are in fourteenth place with six points after five games.As a result of their return to La Liga via the 2022–23 Segunda Division playoffs, Alaves' primary objective for the current campaign is to stay in the top division, with any finish higher than 18th being seen as a success.
In light of this, their campaign has had a reasonably strong start, garnering six points from five games, placing them in 14th place in the standings.
Alaves' season began with a 1-0 loss to Cadiz, then in their final two games of August, they overcame Sevilla 4-3 and fell to Getafe 1-0.
September began with a 1-0 victory for Luis Garcia's team over Alaves, but they have already suffered three straight road losses after being defeated 2-0 by Rayo Vallecano.
Alaves will be happy to be playing this game at home because El Glorioso have only lost one of their previous five La Liga matches against Athletic while recording two victories, both of which have been in front of their own supporters.
This season, Athletic has been one of the league's most remarkable teams, winning three, drawing one, and losing one of their five games to earn 10 points and move them up to fourth place in the standings.
After losing to Real Madrid 2-0 at home to start the season, the Lions went on to defeat Osasuna 2-0 away from home and Real Betis 4-2 at home.
Before the international break, Ernesto Valverde's team drew 0-0 with Mallorca, but they returned to winning ways last time out with a 3-0 victory over Cadiz.
The Red and Whites placed seventh in La Liga last season, but for the 2024–25 season, they may look to make a comeback to European competition.
Athletic possesses two of the league's most exciting attackers in the brothers Inaki and Nico Williams, but Gorka Guruzeta has been the key scorer so far this season, scoring three goals in five games.
