Prediction

Athletic Bilbao has been in excellent form recently, with solid defensive capabilities and strong home performance, boasting a 70% win rate in their last 10 matches. Although Real Madrid is higher in the standings, their defense has been slipping recently, and their away form has been fairly average, with a number of draws. In contrast, Athletic Bilbao has a considerable home advantage, making it likely that the home team will avoid defeat.

Pick: Athletic Bilbao +0.25 (bet365)
