Athletic Club vs Real Madrid Preview and Team News
Athletic Club Team News
Athletic Bilbao currently sit eighth in the table. They haven’t been in good form in the final third, as can be seen by just the three goals they’ve scored in their last five matches. They won just two of them, lost two, and drew the remaining one.
On the positive side, Alex Berenguer has created the most number of big chances for the team (5), and his skills were on full display in their recent 2-0 win over Levante. He made 17 accurate passes and bagged a couple of assists.
The club have several players unavailable due to injury. Aymeric Laporte, Robert Navarro, Unai Eguiluz, Benat Prados, Inaki Williams, and Maroan Sannadi are all ruled out. Oihan Sancet has been suspended.
Athletic Club predicted lineup vs Real Madrid (4-2-3-1): Simon; Berchiche, Paredes, Vivian, Lekue; Rego, Jauregizar; N. Williams, Berenguer, Serrano; Guruzeta.
Real Madrid Team News
Sitting second in the league table, Real Madrid are strong contenders for the title. They are just one point behind their arch-rivals, Barcelona, who are currently the leaders.
Kylian Mbappe is the competition’s top scorer (14), and he converted one from the spot in Madrid’s recent 1-1 away draw with Girona. Although Los Blancos had 60% possession, they could only put four shots on target.
What hurt them most was that out of 25 total shots, 21 lacked precision. Their passing accuracy was quite high at 91%, but silly errors in the final third robbed them of the chance of pocketing all three points.
Madrid have a few injuries. Raul Asencio, Dani Carvajal, David Alaba, and Dean Huijsen are unavailable for selection.
Real Madrid predicted lineup vs Athletic Club (4-4-1-1): Courtois; Garcia, Rudiger, Militao, Alexander-Arnold; Vinicius, Bellingham, Tchouameni, Valverde; Guler; Mbappe.
Athletic Club vs Real Madrid Prediction
- Pick: Real Madrid to win
- Odds: -127 (20Bet)
- Correct score prediction: Athletic Club 1-2 Real Madrid
The quality of Real Madrid’s attackers is far superior to that of Athletic Club. The home team will focus largely on marking their opponents closely in their defensive half. The visitors like to use a wide range of attacking tactics, such as interchanging positions in the final third. Most importantly, their attackers, especially Mbappe and Vinicius, thrive in 1v1 situations against opposition defenders.
Madrid have won 23 of the last 33 matches they’ve played against Bilbao. Even on the road, they’ve beaten the Basque side in 11 of the last 17 encounters.
Athletic Club vs Real Madrid Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Real Madrid to score the last goal
- Odds: -167 (20Bet)
Madrid, with their superiority in passing and overall quality while shooting, should score the last goal. Mbappe’s presence gives a big boost to Xabi Alonso’s side, especially since he excels at picking up lay-offs and weighted passes.
On the other hand, winger Nico Williams completed the most dribbles (3) and hit the woodwork once from three total shots for Bilbao against Levante. Madrid will mark him closely, but in the end, the visitors will edge out their opponents.
