Ath Bilbao vs Villarreal Prediction & Betting tips
An interesting match in this day of Sunday is the one that will dispute Athletic Bilbao and Villarreal for a new date of Liga Águila II.
Ath Bilbao :
In my opinion, there is no clear favorite on this occasion, since the two teams can alternate the ball and neutralize by having different football styles (intensity vs. possession). For this reason and considering that the “Lions” are difficult to overcome in the new San Mamés, we advise you to play a few euros a pure draw. Remember that the “Yellow Submarine” knows how to stand as a visitor thanks to the hierarchy of its players.
Take into account that Athletic Bilbao lost 3-1 to Celta in Balaídos, staying with 11 points in the general table. He has added 4 losses in his last 5 presentations, losing the last 3 in a row. In spite of this bad moment, it is still a militant and intense between the lines, having to improve in defensive matters (15 goals conceded in 11 presentations).
On the other hand, do not forget that the Basque box has added diverse results as local in the new San Mamés, lacking greater consistency with its people. The last victory of the team was against Sevilla (1-0), then falling 0-2 against Barcelona. In the Europa League, he played against the Ukrainian Zorya.
Villarreal:
Continuing with the analysis you should know that Villarreal beat Malaga 2-0 at home in the Madrigal, reaching 20 points in the general table. He has won 4 victories in his last 5 league appearances, proving to be an updated and renewed one since the arrival of coach Javi Calleja. His goal in the short term is to maintain consistency and sneak into the Champions League zone.
And finally we tell you that the “Yellow Submarine” has recorded various markers playing away from home, missing some regularity defensive in this condition (2 wins, 1 draw and 3 falls, managing to score 6 goals and give 10 on your fence). It comes from beating 1-2 to Girona and equaling 1-1 against Atlético de Madrid.
After all that I said the game for equality because of the following reasons: Firstly because the two teams are even and you can alternate the domain of the ball to have different football styles. For this reason, it is logical that the process is intense at certain moments of the game. Second because Athletic Bilbao is a competitive and dynamic eleven but irregular in defensive matters. Its goal is to be more regular at home and be effective with the chances it generates. And third because Villarreal is a square that knows how to stand as a visitor since the arrival of coach Javi Calleja, proving to have a goal in this condition. Given this reality, we believe that the game can end 1-1 or 2-2 after the final whistle. A 0-0 closed procedure is not ruled out.
