With four games left to go in LaLiga 2023/24, Athletic Club's Champions League dream is still alive. It's a complicated task, however, as fourth-placed Atlético Madrid are six points ahead with 12 points to play for.

Nonetheless, as long as it's still mathematically possible, Los Leones will keep fighting for it.
