Real are six points clear at the summit of the Spanish top-flight, although that lead could be reduced should second-place Sevilla beat Barcelona on Tuesday.
Either way, Carlo Ancelotti’s side have the chance to establish breathing space heading into the festive break.
Los Blancos are looking to get back to winning ways following their goalless draw with Cadiz last weekend.
That result ended a run of 10 straight victories in all competitions.
As for Bilbao, they came from 2-1 down to beat Real Betis last time out; subsequently bringing an eight-game winless streak to an end.
And Marcelino will be eager to build on that by inspiring his side to only a second win over the 13-time European champions in 15 attempts.
