“Winning allows us to sleep in European positions and we know how difficult Valencia is”. Marcelino is aware of how close the three duels that Athletic have had this season against Bordalás’ squad have been. The ‘rojiblanco’ coach understands that “in the game we were closer to victory than defeat in those three games, but we tied two and lost one”.
The rojiblanco coach understands, in any case, that “that is past and the present allows us to opt for European positions. Being like this for four days gives us great satisfaction and confirmation that we are doing things very well. We are going to try to beat Valencia without any desire for revenge”.
Marcelino expects a game very similar to the previous three and prefers not to make numbers. “The scenario is not going to vary much from the previous matches, although I hope the result will. The best cabal is to focus on us and beat Valencia because that’s not the milkmaid’s account”.
