Watch Barcelona Vs. Athletic Bilbao Live Stream: Start Time, Preview, How To Watch La Liga Match Online


Barcelona suffered not only its first defeat of the 2018/2019 La Liga season, but one of its most shocking setbacks in recent years on Wednesday night when the defending and 25-time Spanish champions battled last-place Liganés, as FCBarcelona.com reported, and surrendered a pair of late goals to absorb a 2-1 loss. Now, the Blaugrana will try to get back on track against struggling Athletic Bilbao, in a match that will live stream from Camp Nou.

After three straight draws following a season-opening win over that same Liganés side, Athletic Club also absorbed their first defeat in a mid-week match, taking a 3-0 hammering from Villareal, per Sky Sports. Bilbao may get a boost on Saturday as well with the return from injury of 37-year-old veteran striker Artiz Aduriz, who has not played since the Liganés victory.

Winger Markel Susaeta was on the sidelines against Villareal as well, with a one-game suspension, but will reappear in the lineup against Barcelona, according to Football Espana.

But Ernst Valverde’s La Liga-Leading side will also receive reinforcements, with Jordi Alba and Luis Suárez both returning from rest periods as Valverde manages his site through a period of fixture congestion, according to BeSoccer, and French center-back Clément Lenglet returning from a ban.

Aritz Aduriz of Athletic Bilbao is reportedly healthy to face Barcelona.
