Barcelona vs Athletic Bilbao La Liga BAR vs ATH MATCH PREVIEW: Barcelona host Ernesto Valverde's former team Athletic Bilbao in the La Liga match at Camp Nou. The Blaugrana are 1st in the table, 8 points better off than Atletico Madrid who will be traveling to Villarreal for their league match. The Catalan giant are unbeaten in league campaign so far, and this envious streak doesn't seem to end against Bilbao who are struggling for results this campaign. Valverde's incredible job with the Basque side is more evident after he left for Barcelona as, under their new coach Jose Angel Ziganda, they are wrestling for results, and have accumulated only 35 points in 28 games while winning only 8 league games this campaign. As a result, another managerial change is expected at Sam Memes stadium in the summer. Barcelona made the light work of Chelsea in the Champions League where Lionel Messi once again showed that why he is at par with every footballer in the world. But the game was a good reflection about Ernesto Valverde's tactics this season. It's not a tiki-taka or an artistic approach kind of football anymore. But his tactics are built around direct and quick counter-attacking football, with Messi at the top of everything this team does.
