Impact Martinez has missed Athletic's last three games with a hamstring injury he suffered against Levante in early March, but he's back with the team and may be fit enough to return against Villarreal on Saturday.

Inigo Martinez - Returns to training Martinez (hamstring) was back in full training with Bilbao on Tuesday.
Unai Simon - Concedes one in win Simon conceded one goal and made one save during Sunday's 2-1 win over Elche.
Impact Simon has conceded no more than one goal in four straight league matches, winning two, recording one draw and losing once. Aside from Thibaut Courtois, there aren't many in Simon's position that play as consistently even when their teams aren't so active offensively. Still, up next is a trip to Villarreal, which rank among the top attacking sides in La Liga.

Asier Villalibre - Finds net in win Villalibre scored one goal from three shots (one on goal) in 15 minutes of Sunday's 2-1 win over Elche.
Impact Villalibre was on his game with two close headers and a fine finish to the far post in Sunday's victory. As his first goal of the league season, Villalibre will hope to exorcise some demons as the campaign moves to its final stages and he continues to build up his fitness. Up next is a trip to Villarreal.
APRIL 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Alex Berenguer - Scores in win Berenguer scored one goal from one shot and created three chances from 10 crosses (two accurate) during 75 minutes of Sunday's 2-1 win over Elche.
Impact Berenguer has been one of his side's highlights between late-winter and early-spring and that continued with a fine goal to beat the offside trap in Sunday's win. With 36 crosses and two assists as well in his last four starts, Berenguer should have plenty of confidence for the next match at Villarreal.

Raul Garcia - Logs assist in win Garcia provided one assist in 25 minutes of Sunday's 2-1 win over Elche.
Impact Garcia set up Asier Villalibre's well-taken finish while coming on in relief of Oihan Sancet. Recently, Garcia has come off the bench in three straight appearances but looked better in Sunday's win. Should this earn him a start against Villarreal, he'll face a tough opponent in the Yellow Submarine.

Yuri Berchiche - Provides assist in win Berchiche provided one assist from one chance created on four crosses (one accurate) during Sunday's 2-1 win over Elche.
Impact Berchiche has scored once and added one assist over his last two matches while helping his side to four wins in his last five starts. He might have a tougher task against Villarreal, which don't concede many attacking chances to defenders.

Inigo Martinez - Doubtful for Elche game Martinez (hamstring) is still not training with Athletic and is a doubt to be fit enough to play against Elche on Sunday, according to El Correo.
Impact Martinez has missed Bilbao's last two games with a hamstring injury, and he's not expected to be available at the weekend either. With Yeray Alvarez suspended, Unai Nunez is likely to line up alongside Dani Vivian in central defense for the match.

Yeray Alvarez - Suspended against Elche Alvarez will miss Sunday's clash against Elche with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.
Impact Alvarez picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in the draw against Getafe before the international break, meaning he will be suspended for Sunday's game. Inigo Martinez (hamstring) would likely replace him in central defense if he's fit, or Unai Nunez could come in.
