Team News: Gary Neville rings the changes for Valencia's trip to Athletic Bilbao

Neville rings the changes

Valencia manager Gary Neville has named a much-changed starting XI for the first leg of Los Che's Europa League last-16 tie against fellow Spanish outfit Athletic Bilbao.

Only two players - Shkodran Mustafi and Javi Fuego - keep their place from the La Liga defeat to Atletico Madrid on Sunday.

The home side, meanwhile, come into this match on a three-game winning streak and they show only one change from the 2-0 triumph at Sporting Gijon.

It comes in midfield, with Ander Iturraspe taking Mikel San Jose's place.

Athletic Bilbao: Herrerin; De Marcos, Etxeita, Laporte, Balenziaga; Iturraspe, Benat, Susaeta, Raul Garcia, Muniain; Aduriz Subs: Iraizoz, Boveda, Inigo Lekue, Elustondo, Eraso, Rico, Merino

Valencia: Ryan, Mustafi, Gaya, Barragan, Abdennour, Parejo, Danilo, Javi Fuego, Negredo, Piatti, Rodrigo Subs: Domenech, Cancelo, Vezo, Feghouli, Gomes, Alcacer, Mina
