FC Barcelona vs Athletic Club: Head-to-Head Record

It is one of the oldest fixtures in Spain and a rivalry that holds a lot of importance.

FC Barcelona and Athletic Club will meet on 24 October 2022 in LaLiga in a highly anticipated fixture. These two teams have been clashing with each other for decades in various different competitions, including the Copa del Rey and Supercopa de Espana. Both clubs share many characteristics such as being owned by members and developing youth talent from the local area. In that department, no club can compete with the Athletic Club which has a unique culture of using players from the Basque region.

As for FC Barcelona, the strongest club in the Catalonia region, the rivalry with Athletic Club today holds more historical importance than its competitive value. In recent years, the disparity between the quality of the teams has increased. However, in every contest between these two teams, tensions are high and the atmosphere can be described as electric. Back in 1931, Athletic Club beat FC Barcelona by 12-1 but those days are long forgotten and the present scenario is quite different.

In the last five meetings between these clubs, FCB has won three matches with Athletic Club winning one and the other being a draw. Despite a positive record by the Blaugrana in recent fixtures, one cannot easily predict the outcome of the upcoming fixture.
