Antoine Griezmann is the great novelty in the eleven of Ronald Koeman against Athletic Club. The Dutch coach has decided to grant ownership to the French forward. The attacker returns to the starting position after his substitution against Hueca, a game in which he only played ten minutes after replacing Braithwaite. Precisely, the Danish has been the sacrificed footballer and will be on the bench against the team of Marcelino, who debuts today on the Athletic bench. Koeman has decided to seat the Nordic attacker after six consecutive matches in the starting lineup, specifically since December 13, when he was the game against Levante (December 13).

The starting team will consist of Ter Stegen under sticks, accompanied in defense by Dest on the right side, Lenglet and Araújo on the back axis, and Jordi Alba on the left side. Busquets and De Jong will continue to be the pivot, assisting a midfield formed by Pedri, Messi y Dembélé, with Griezmann as a reference in the attack. On the bench will be Neto, Junior Firpo, Mingueza, Riqui Puig, Pjanic, Braithwaite, Trincao and Konrad.

For his part, at Athletic Club, Marcelino Garcia Toral bet on his first starting eleven for Unai Simón; Capa, Núñez, Iñigo Martínez, Yuri; De Marcos, Vencedor, Vesga, Muniain; Raúl García and Williams. Meanwhile, on the bench of the Biscayan team will be goalkeeper Ezkieta along with Morcillo, Ibai, Córdoba, Berenguer, Dani García, Lekue, Sancet, Kodro, Villalibre, Balenziaga and Vicente.
