  • Venue: Estadio Municipal de Butarque (Leganes)

After four years in the second level of Spanish football, Leganes returned to La Liga. Although Borja Jimenez is among the worst teams in the highest ranks in the country, they started the 2024/25 season with an excellent five points from the first three matches. Unfortunately, they stayed pointless in the next two La Liga rounds. In the previous game, they lost 2-0 on the road against Betis. Although the home side dominated throughout the match, they broke Leganes' defense in the final twenty minutes when they scored both goals. 

Athletic Bilbao's start to the season was subpar, as they collected only seven points in the first five matches. Especially disappointing was the opening round when Ernesto Valverde's team drew at home against Getafe. However, it seems that Athletic Bilbao are improving with every round. In the previous match, they won 3-2 on the road against Las Palmas. Both teams had good goal-scoring chances, but eventually, Athletic Bilbao picked up all three points. 

Leganes vs Athletic Bilbao pick: Athletic Bilbao to win

Leganes are slowing down after a good start. On the other side, it seems that Athletic Bilbao is better with every round played. We should expect guests to record a victory in the tie at Estadio Municipal de Butarque.

One of the Leganes' most reliable players, Yvan Neyou, suffered a muscle injury in the previous match against Betis. Early signs are that he will miss the next two or three weeks. The primary candidate to replace Neyou is Renato Tapia. The Peruvian experienced some injury problems recently, too, but he should be ready for Thursday.
