LIVE – Athletic Bilbao v Real Madrid: Commentary, updates, goals and stats

Real Madrid will hope to return to winning ways in La Liga and move within a point of leaders Barcelona when they go to Athletic Bilbao tonight.

Xabi Alonso’s side have failed to win any of their last three league games after being held by Rayo Vallecano, Elche and Girona.

That has allowed Barca to claim top spot and pile the pressure on the Madrid boss.

Athletic are eighth following the weekend win at Levante.
