La Liga Sunday

Athletic Bilbao have struggled to balance Europa League and La Liga commitments this season. The effect of competing on both fronts have clearly taken it's toll - as displayed by their position in 17th place in La Liga.

Their results immediately following Europa League matches this season have been:

Ath Bilbao 0 - 0 Getafe

Eibar 0 - 1 Ath Bilbao

Las Palmas 1 - 0 Ath Bilbao

Valencia 3 - 2 Ath Bilbao

Leganes 1 - 0 Ath Bilbao

Celta Vigo 3 - 1 Ath Bilbao

Deportivo 2 - 2 Ath Bilbao

Just five points from seven matches, and not of those against the top teams. They took a strong side to Zorya on Thursday, and Levante look overpriced to add to the list of teams who have had one over Bilbao this season. They are 14/5 to win this one, and that simply has to be too long given the stats above.

We are planning to do a more detailed dive into results following Europa League matches on a wider scale by the way, so look out for this coming soon.
