Athletic Bilbao vs Espanyol Prediction & Picks - LaLiga
by Carlos Zabala | in LaLiga Picks
Athletic Club and Espayol meet early on Saturday for La Liga matchday 10.
Athletic Club remain in their European spots despite losing their last match against Girona 1-2 before the international break. It was a painful defeat as they were unable to score on two penalties and conceded one to Girona at the end of the match that the home team were able to convert.
However, returning to San Mamés is a relief for Valverde's team, who have also only failed to score in 1 of their last 17 games. At home, they have only lost 1 of their last 23 games.
One of the teams that has had success visiting San Mamés was Espayol, who were able to beat them on their last visit in La Liga 2022/2023. However, this is a very different team to that one, although they will have the morale boost of having been able to beat Mallorca in the last duel. Before that victory they had lost their three previous matches but the newly promoted team is doing well in order to stay in the league as they are 14th.
However, Espayol has not managed to get a surprise result for some time. In fact, they have not won a match against the top six in the table in the last 13 attempts.
