Susaeta: "Match with 'Barca' - a great spectacle for the viewers" © EuroFootball.com

Bilbao "Athletic" defender Markel Susaeta is convinced that the upcoming match against "Barcelona" is always a great spectacle for the fans.

However, according to the footballer, it is another tough challenge for his team.

"The most important factor? You know, it's best not to make any preconceived decisions. We will have to defend with all our might. "Barcelona" likes open and attacking football. Our opponents are top-class players, ready to exploit the smallest mistakes of their rivals," said the Basque.

"During the match, we will have opportunities to score, but I somehow think that there won't be many of those opportunities. We need to efficiently take advantage of the first chance that comes our way," said M. Susaeta.

According to the "Athletic" defender, the fact that Lionel Messi will not be among the ranks of "Barca" does not have a very significant meaning.

"Against us will be Andres Iniesta, Pedro, David Villa. These are players who, with their active actions, can unbalance any team's defense. The match against "Barcelona" is a great spectacle for the fans, but for us, it is a very serious challenge," emphasized the Basque.
