Preview for the Clash: Slavia Praha vs Athletic Bilbao

On Tuesday, 25 November 2025, football enthusiasts will turn their gaze to the Fortuna Arena, where Slavia Praha will lock horns with Athletic Bilbao in a decisive Champions League Group stage encounter. As Matchday 5 unfolds, the stakes are high for both sides, each eager to bolster their standings and secure a more favorable position in their group. Slavia Praha, currently languishing in the 30th position on the table with only 2 points amassed from 2 draws and 2 defeats, are desperate for their first victory. Their home record has been less than satisfactory, with no wins, one draw, and one defeat.

Conversely, Athletic Bilbao, positioned slightly higher at 27th with 3 points, are also in dire need of a win to keep their hopes alive. Their campaign so far includes one victory against three losses, with an away record that shows no wins in two outings. Historically, the last direct meeting between these two teams ended in a 1-0 victory for Athletic Bilbao, a result Slavia Praha will be keen to overturn. As both teams come off domestic league wins - Slavia Praha with an impressive 5-3 away triumph over Viktoria Pilsen and Athletic Bilbao's narrow 1-0 home win against Real Oviedo - confidence is running high.

With the pressure mounting, Valverde will rely on his team's resilience and tactical nous to secure a much-needed victory.
