Welcome to Sportstar's LIVE BLOG of the 2019-20 La Liga match between Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao which happened at the San Mames Stadium on Sunday.

REAL MADRID XI: Thibaut Courtois (G), Dani Carvajal, Sergio Ramos (C), Eder Militao, Marcelo, Federico Valverde, Casemiro, Luka Modric, Marco Asensio, Karim Benzema, Rodrygo.

SUBS: Alphonse Areola (G), Isco, Gareth Bale, Luka Jovic, Lucas, Ferland Mendy, Toni Kroos, Vinicius Junior, Mariano, Brahim Diaz.

Meanwhile, Athletic Club has been in impressive form since returning to action after the lockdown period, winning three, drawing two and losing just one of its six matches in Spain's top flight.

However, with the Catalans not in action again until Sunday evening in another tricky game away to fifth-placed Villarreal, Los Blancos will be desperate to take another step towards the Spanish title.

Gaizka Garitano's side is currently eighth in the table, just four points off sixth-placed Getafe, which appears to be battling Villarreal, Sevilla and Atletico Madrid for two Champions League spots.
