Break the bad streak in Irun
Break the bad streak in Irun
Bilbao Athletic will try to break their bad streak at the Stadium Gal, with 14 matches without a victory against Real Unión.
Bilbao Athletic will face Real Unión on Saturday (Stadium Gal, 16.00pm) in their 9th day at the Second Division B, Group II. The vibes in the team, led by Joseba Etxeberria, are positive. Leader and up in the ranking, with 17 points with Real Sociedad B, UD Logroñés and Cultural Leonesa, the team is showing an effective attacking play and is living a good moment of trust and confidence, despite the draw (3-3) in the last match against Amorebieta, in Lezama.
The approach seems to be good in order to break the bad historical streak at the Stadium Gal. Bilbao Athletic played 14 consecutive matches without a win there. Last win was in 2004 (1-2, with goals scored by Tarantino and Goiria).
On the other hand, Real Unión was strengthened last day with its first victory at home, against Valladolid B. The team of Alberto Iturralde is ranked 14th, with 8 points.
