Athletic Club vs Atletico Madrid: Two mountains to climb
COVID-19 forced football to a stop can continue when they travel to take on Athletic Club at San
Mames on Sunday.Three months have passed since that night in March, but Diego Simeone knows that his side need to keep pushing on with that same urgency and fight.Atletico are sixth as things stand,
giving them an uphill battle in the remaining 11 games of 2019/20 as they look to qualify for the Champions League again.Los Colchoneros have budgeted for Champions League football and even
CEO Miguel Angel Gil Marin himself has stressed the importance of finishing in the top four.Atleti travel to Bilbao just a point off fourth, but they'll have their eyes on Sevilla in third, giving them a five-point margin to overturn.A win would see Simeone's side move above Getafe and they could stay ahead
of Real Sociedad depending on their result against Osasuna later on Sunday.Meanwhile, it's a similar situation at San MamesAthletic themselves want to add to the pre-break momentum.Currently 10th, Gaizka Garitano's men have their own European ambitions and they'll be keen to stay in the fight for Europa League qualification.
