Four changes for Athletic Bilbao

Athletic Bilbao have made four changes ahead of their Europa League playoff second-leg clash against Zilina.

Iago Herrerin, Inigo Lekue, Carlos Gurpegui and Borja Viguera come into the hosts' starting XI in place of Gorka Iraizoz, Mikel Balenziaga, Mikel Rico and Sabin Merino.
