Athletic Bilbao midfielder Mikel Rico has called on his side to remain focused ahead of Friday's La Liga clash with Cordoba.
Bilbao will enter the match as the strong favourites to claim all three points, but they were beaten 1-0 at home by Cordoba in the reverse match earlier this season.
Cordoba are also in a desperate position at the bottom of the table – eight points from safety with just six games remaining.
"They are down to their last few bullets. They beat us at San Mames when we weren't in a positive dynamic. They have some good individual players up front, and players who are dangerous in one-on-one chances on goal," AS quotes Rico as saying.
Bilbao are currently just three points off the top seven.
