Athletic Club vs. Real Madrid live stream: How to watch La Liga live online, TV channel, prediction, oddsGetty Images Real Madrid will try to launch their new season with a win away at Athletic Club on Saturday but Carlo Ancelotti was handed a big headache on the eve of the new La Liga campaign. Thibaut Courtois will miss the trip to San Mames and much of the 2023-24 term after suffering a torn ACL in a training session on Thursday. Los Blancos came second in La Liga but 10 points behind champions and bitter rivals Barcelona although they did win the Copa del Rey for the first time in nine years.
Athletic are solidly eighth in the table over the past few years and Ernesto Valverde will attempt to lift the Basque powerhouse towards Europe. Inigo Martinez has moved on while Nico and Inaki Williams are still in Bilbao as Real will start life without former talisman Karim Benzema. Jude Bellingham, Arda Guler and Fran Garcia have arrived while Joselu and Brahim Diaz have also added to Ancelotti's options.
