Athletic Bilbao vs Barcelona
Spain – Copa del Rey
Date: Thursday, 20 January 2022
Kick-off at 20:30 UK/ 21:30 CET
Venue: Estadio San Mamés.

The hits keep coming on for Barca, and they just cannot catch a break. They were defeated in the semis of the Super Cup by arch-rivals Real Madrid, and then the Los Blancos went ahead and lifted the title. 

And now, the Catalans have another tough fixture coming up in the Copa del Rey. Each passing day, fans are losing hope that the team might lift a trophy this season. 

Bilbao were the team that Real Madrid took on in the final of the Super Cup, and though the team lost, they have gained much confidence from their endeavor. Especially in the semis, the team had defeated Atletico Madrid. 

By the looks of things, expect a fierce encounter between Barca and Bilbao this Thursday in the Copa, and it’s anticipated that goals will come from either end of the pitch.
