Two sides will lock horns mid-week in LaLiga game.

Leganes are set to face off against Athletic Club Bilbao in their 6th game of the ongoing LaLiga 2024-25 season at the Estadio Municipal de Butarque, which is the home ground of Leganes. Leganes are placed at the 15th position in the points table with 5 points in 5 games. If they continue to perform similarly then things can further become a big issue for them as they have struggled to win games so far.

On the other hand, Athletic Club are 9th in the points table with 7 points in 5 games. In the last game, Leganes were beaten away from home by Real Betis. On the other hand, Athletic Club beat Las Palmas away from home. Athletic have displayed decent performance but they will have to do more than that if they are finish in the top four by the end of the season.

Players to watch out for:

Juan Cruz (Leganes):

In the 2024-25 season, after returning to La Liga, Leganes fans have quickly turned their attention to Juan Cruz, not just for his goals but for his work ethic and his flair on the pitch. His goal against Las Palmas was a work of art where he unleashed a spectacular shot from 25 meters out. He has scored 2 goals in 5 games and will be the player to watch out for in this game yet again.

Nico Williams (Athletic Club)

In the 2024-25 season, Nico Williams has continued to be a pivotal player for Athletic Club. He has displayed his growth as a winger with his speed, dribbling, and improved goal-scoring skills. He has played 5 games and scored 1 goal in the ongoing season. He has created danger but hasn’t been able to convert them into goals. However, we expect him to be the main man for Athletic Club against Leganes.
