Athletic Bilbao vs Valencia Prediction & Picks - LaLiga
by Carlos Zabala | in LaLiga Picks
Athletic Bilbao got off to a slow start in the EA Sports La Liga, but will do so at home against another team that has not won, Valencia.
Athletic has not lost two consecutive league games since May 2023, but has a good chance to get another win as Valencia had a terrible away record against teams that finished in the top 9 of La Liga last season. In addition, Valencia has only scored more than 1 goal against Athletic Bilbao once in the last 10 games between them.
Athletic Bilbao won the Copa del Rey after not having done so in the last 40 years and finished fifth in La Liga. The star of the "Lions" and of the last Euro Cup, Williams, did not train with his team on Monday after a muscle strain in the team's last loss against Barcelona.
Valencia lost its first two games in La Liga and allowed 2 or more goals in each game. In the last match against Celta, Valencia outshot them by as many as 6 times, and Celta only had 35 dangerous attacks in the entire match, but they were very accurate and scored 3 goals.
