Ostersunds vs Ath Bilbao Prediction & Betting tips
An entertaining encounter in this day of Thursday is the one that will play Östersunds and Athletic de Bilbao by a new date of the Europa League (group phase).
Ostersunds :
In my opinion, there is no clear favorite on this occasion, as the two teams can alternate the ball and goal situations. For this reason and knowing that the Swedes are showing up as a competitive and supportive oncena in the European contest, we advise you to play a few euros to the bet “plus 8 corners”. Remember that the Basques will also help in this pick thanks to their intense and dynamic style of midfield forward.
Take into account that Östersunds is living a golden dream in this European competition after classifying this instance and adding positive results in their first two appearances in the group stage. First beat the visiting Ukrainian Zorya 0-2 to then defeat Hertha Berlin 1-0 in Swedish territory (3-9 on corners). Apparently she is a combative and competitive eleven in spite of her soccer limitations.
On the other hand do not forget that the Swedish box will pose a combative duel in the midfield, as this type of game agrees to be able to stop the offensive send of his rival. Of course, remember that the Nordics have managed to craft to defend well and to reach the goal in punctual plays.
Ath Bilbao :
Continuing with the analysis you must know that Athletic de Bilbao beat Sevilla 1-0 at home in the new San Mamés, reaching 11 points in total. Thanks to this victory he cut a negative streak of several games without winning in the competition. Their goal is to win their first duel in the group after equaling 0-0 against Hertha Berlin in Germany and losing 0-1 against Zorya at home. In terms of corners, there were 9 in German territory (5-4).
Already to finish we tell you that the Basques have added diverse results as visitors, after beating Eibar 1-0, losing 1-0 against Athletic Bilbao, equaling 3-3 against Malaga after winning 1-3 partially and falling 3 -2 against Valencia in Mestalla.
After reviewing the details of this comparison I play for the “more 8 corners” bet because of the following reasons: First because Swedes and Spaniards are combative and powerful teams in their actions. Therefore, it is logical that they can alternate the ball and the chances of goal during the 90 ‘minutes of play. Of course, several of these attacks can end from the pennant. Second because Östersunds is a limited but very strong team thanks to the spirit of its players. Therefore, it should not be surprising that they have won two consecutive matches in the group. It is expected that they can specify between 4 to 6 corners in the collation. And third because Athletic Bilbao is an intense oncena by the players that has, being feasible that can register between 4 to 6 corners also. Given this reality, we believe there will be corners from the initial pitazo.
