Athletic Bilbao - Real Madrid predictions

The visiting team knows the task they face will not be easy. Beating Athletic Bilbao on their own turf would be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

The match is most likely to go in the away team’s favour, though it’s by no means a sure thing. With 2.16 betting odds to win, Real Madrid have the upper hand going in, but all three possible outcomes are possible.

The Lions are here on the back of a surprise 1:2 victory against Rayo Vallecano in the last round. They spent the first half on the back foot thanks to a home-field disadvantage and tough matchup against Rayo Vallecano but managed to take control of the game before the end and overturn the result completely.

The visitors are coming off from a fairly easy home win in the previous round of the La Liga. A healthy 2:0 HT/FT victory will have certainly boosted their confidence ahead of the Wednesday clash.

The Lions’s form is fairly strong when it comes to offense – they netted 6 goals in the last three away games.

With 9 goals in their previous 3 La Liga matches, Real M. boast some of the most prolific strikers of the league. Top online bookies are predicting another action-packed game.

Real M. displayed very strong form in the 19 games they played so far this season. They’re in a Champions League qualifying spot. Not that qualification is anywhere close, of course – we’re only at round 19. That said, they’ll be highly motivated to win in San Mamés Barria, even though the two teams are more or less equal in strength.

We saw this matchup play more than once in the previous season, and Los Blancos proved their dominance time and time again. They recorded multiple decisive victories, each with a heft goal lead.

An exciting match is in store as both teams have their full lineups available due to no suspensions or injuries.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Pncl priced at 2.03 odds.
