Why is Athletic Bilbao 7th in the La Liga table?

Athletic Bilbao currently occupy 7th position in the La Liga 2025-2026 standings with 45 points from 36 matchdays. Their record of 13 wins, 6 draws and 17 defeats translates to a win rate of 36%, positioning them for a potential Conference League spot. The 13 wins accumulated so far reflect a solid but not yet dominant season for ATH.

On the attacking front, ATH have found the net 40 times in 36 league appearances, averaging 1.11 goals per game. Defensively, they have conceded 51 goals (1.42 per match), producing an overall goal difference of -11. A goal difference of -11 signals a squad that has been significantly outperformed across the season, conceding far too freely while struggling to score consistently.

Recent form paints a concerning picture for ATH. Over the last five matches, the team has recorded 0 wins, 0 draws and 0 defeats. With momentum lacking, the coaching staff will be under pressure to find a formula that delivers more consistent results.

Founded in 1898, Athletic Bilbao play their home matches at San Mames (53,289 capacity) in Bilbao. The club has won 8 La Liga titles. Under coach Ernesto Valverde, ATH currently occupy a UEFA Conference League spot and will look to push for European competition over the remaining matchdays.

How does Athletic Bilbao's 2025-2026 season compare to the rest of La Liga?

Across the La Liga 2025-2026 season, Athletic Bilbao have collected 45 points from 36 matches, ranking them 7th out of 20 clubs. Their 40 goals scored place them 14th in the league's scoring charts, while 51 goals conceded ranks them 11th defensively. More defeats (17) than wins (13) tell the story of a side that has struggled for consistency.

ATH's 6 draws have been a defining feature of their campaign. A moderate number of drawn matches suggests ATH are competitive but occasionally lack the cutting edge to convert draws into wins. Looking at the points-per-game ratio of 1.25, maintaining this rate should be enough for survival, but there is little margin for a dip in form.
