Athletic Bilbao vs Leganes Prediction & Betting tips
In the penultimate play round of the Primera Division, Athletic Bilbao will visit Leganes. Both teams have reason for joy because they look forward to their goal.
Athletic Bilbao :
Athletic Bilbao saw a series of four wins in a row last week with a 1-0 defeat with local Alaves. A bitter pill for trainer Ernesto Valverde: ‘In my opinion, we made the most claim to victory. However, we missed opportunities we normally had. ” Nevertheless, the Basques are still on the verge of qualifying for European football with a preliminary sixth place. As long as FC Barcelona reaches the longest end of the Spanish Cup final against Alaves, even the seventh place gives a ticket to the Europa League. As number eight Eibar is in great league, there is no foul for Los Leones, although Williams is still not sure: “We have two finals ahead.”
Football is not always in my mind at Athletic Bilbao, but the club is among the best home teams of the Primera Division with thirteen victories in eighteen home matches. ‘Good old’ Aritz Aduriz is still the big star with the Basques with fifteen goals. Thirteen of those goals he made in his own San Mames. He still can be crowned to be the most scoring Spaniard of the Primera Division because the backlog on Celta de Vigo attacker Iago Aspas is just two goals.
Probable setup Athletic Bilbao
Kepa; Balenziaga, Yeray, Boveda, De Marcos; Benat, San Jose; Muniain, Raul Garcia, Williams; Aduriz
Leganes :
Leganes set a giant step towards retention on Monday evening by crushing the poor Real Betis with no less than 4-0. Szymanwoski and Gabriel were unable to hold. Gabriel’s 3-0 in particular was to be smashed – from the center line, the Brazilian shot the leather in the shop hook (look back here). “Nothing wrong,” said RenĂ© van der Gijp. So it was once again fun in the Butarque, though trainer Asier Garitano did not yet join the polonaise: “We still need a point for retention.” In theory, it may still be wrong, because as Sporting Gijon and Leganes end up at the same level, Madrilen pulls on the basis of a less mutual result at the shortest end.
However, that would be incredibly sour, as Leganes deserves to stay for the highest level. Alaves is by far the best PhD student this season, but I think the performance of Leganes is fairer. Alaves smashed a lot of money last summer and refined almost her entire selection, but the Madrines had to put in the debut season in the Primera Division with almost the same team as last year. Most beautiful example is, of course, Mantovani captain, who came to Los Pepineros when the team was still on the third level. Harness for Asier Garitano – Enforcement with Leganes is in my eyes better than becoming a national champion with Real Madrid. However, the spoil is not yet fully in place. This weekend the coach has to make it without first goalkeeper Herrerin and midfielder Unai Lopez. Both are hired from Athletic Bilbao and may not come into action against their mother club.
Probable setup of Leganes
Champagne; Diego Rico, Siovas, Mantovani, Tito; Timor, Ruben Perez; Szymanowski, Gabriel, El Zhar; Guerrero
