In the 1995–96 season, Athletic Bilbao, under head coach Dragoslav Stepanović, began their La Liga campaign with a promising 4–0 victory over Racing Santander. However, the team's performance declined, leading to Stepanović's dismissal in March 1996. José María Amorrortu took over as caretaker manager, guiding the team to a 15th-place finish, narrowly avoiding relegation. In the Copa del Rey, Athletic Bilbao reached the Round of 16 but were eliminated by Real Zaragoza. Midfielders Julen Guerrero and Cuco Ziganda were the team's top scorers, each contributing nine league goals. Following the season, Luis Fernández was appointed as the new head coach.

In the 1996–97 season, Athletic Bilbao, under new head coach Luis Fernández, achieved a 6th-place finish in La Liga, marking their best league performance since 1993–94 and securing a spot in the UEFA Cup for the following season. However, their Copa del Rey campaign ended in the Round of 16 after a contentious second-leg match against Racing Santander at San Mamés, which saw three players receive red cards. Key contributors included Cuco Ziganda, who netted 17 league goals, and Ismael Urzaiz, who scored 18 goals across all competitions.
