Celta de Vigo - Athletic Bilbao predictions

Celta de Vigo will have to fight an uphill battle to win this match. They are the underdogs of the matchup – though Athletic Bilbao don’t have a huge advantage. Still, with the 2.88 odds on a home win, things may get a bit dicey.

Team from Bilbao are heading into a difficult fight, but it’s far from hopeless. They may need to bring their best, but the match can go any way at this point. The odds of an away win are 2.69 right now, which means the favourites are far from clear.

The home side held pretty well for the first half of their last league match. Despite playing away as the underdogs (ODDS_AWAY_WIN_LAST_ROUND), they managed to stay afloat in the first half with only one goal breaking them after the break (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY).

Team from Bilbao narrowly won an away game in the previous round of the La Liga, with the pre-match betting odds for such an outcome set at 2.08. The home-field disadvantage wasn’t enough to stop them from winning, though it did take them more than half the game to gain a lasting lead.

The hosts will hopefully perform better than what we’ve seen from their away games. The 5 concessions they recorded over the past 3 away games has some fans reeling.

Although Athletic Bilbao are playing as visitors in round 20, their recent string of success at home is worth mentioning. They’ve won the previous 3 home games, displaying strong form along the way.

The away team are seen as favourites despite their role as the visitors, and that makes a lot of sense considering the previous clash with Celta De Vigo they had. Athletic pulled far ahead of their opponents and secured a decisive victory.

A Double Chance wager on Home or Draw is probably the smartest way of going about things in this particular matchup. It’s still somewhat risky but should provide enough value at the odds of 1.50.
