Athletic never won against Osasuna this season. It was a draw at home of Athletic in the Liga encounter and a 0-1 defeat in the first leg of the semifinals of Copa del Rey.

Now it’s the third encounter of the season and the most decisive one. It will now be the San Mamés pitch that will dictate the verdict. The coaches arrive with their squads at full strength, but with particular defferences in the forms.

Athletic will be confident of coming back from behind in front of their home fans at San Mamés. The lions will be looking to beat Osasuna by more than one goal to reach another Copa del Rey final and fight to win it again after a 39-year drought (1984 was the last one). Herrera is back in the squad after 2-months of absence. He might provide great contribution with his experiences.

Osasuna have Chimy Avila in the squad but it’s not sure if he can start. He had a muscle problem before the break and this postponed his debut in the Spanish national team. Now he is back but most probably the Argentinian forward won’t be able to start. A huge loss for Osasuna.

Let’s back Athletic.

本赛季，毕尔巴鄂竞技从未赢过奥萨苏纳。 在西甲联赛中，他们在在主场被逼平，而在国王杯半决赛的第一回合中，毕尔巴鄂竞技0-1落败。

现在是本赛季的第三次交锋，也是最具决定性的一次。 现在将由圣马梅斯球场来决定结果。双方教练们带着他们的队伍全员到场，但在状态上却有特别的不同。

毕尔巴鄂竞技将有信心在圣马梅斯的主场球迷面前反败为胜。他们希望以超过1球的优势击败奥萨苏纳，以进入另一场国王杯决赛，并在39年后再次赢得国王杯（1984年是最后一次）。 埃雷拉在缺席2个月后回到了球队。 他可能会凭借自己的经验做出巨大贡献。

奥萨苏纳有阿维拉在队中，但不确定他能否首发。 他在休赛期前出现了肌肉问题，这推迟了他在西班牙队的首次亮相。 现在他回来了，但很可能这位阿根廷前锋无法首发。 这对奥萨苏纳来说是一个巨大的损失。

让我们支持毕尔巴鄂竞技。
