The FC Barcelona knows very very what is to delete to the Athletic of the Glass of the King in the last times, so much in finals as in previous rounds, and by this reason is optimistic of face to the double clash that will carry him to measure against the Basques from the next month of January of 2017, first in Saint Mamés and afterwards in the Camp Nou.
