Sevilla - Athletic Bilbao betting tips and odds

Sevilla have their work cut out for them if they want to beat Athletic Bilbao. They are widely considered to be the weaker team – though the difference is not huge, to be fair. Overall, it’s shaping up to be an exciting showdown.

2.50 on an away match is what many punters run away from but Athletic Bilbao are a team capable of big things. Therefore, backing them in this match might not be a bad idea after all.

Last time out in the La Liga, an early first-half time goal seemed to have stunned The Sevillistas and they were ultimately unable to recover. In the end, they suffered a devastating 8 home defeat they will be determined to bounce back from this Saturday.

Athletic Bilbao supporters were all smiles from the beginning to the end of their team’s previous home game. Athletic Bilbao took a lead early on and saw Almería off with ease - 4:0.

A quick look at recent history shows us that Sevilla don’t tend to fare too well at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán despite the home-field advantage. Results aside, they’ve conceded more than 5 goals in their previous 3 home games alone.

The visiting team are doing rather well offensively – at least as far as their latest 3 matches can tell us. They’ve scored more than 5 times in total over the course of these games.

The 17th spot in the standings Sevilla ended up on is far from great, but their near future doesn’t seem much brighter considering how unfavourable this matchup is. That said, the season is just starting, so we may be in for a surprise yet.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 2.15 if you use the Betsson sportsbook.
