Atletico Madrid vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction & Picks - LaLiga

 by Bradley Gibbs in LaLiga Picks

Saturday's Spanish LaLiga action ends with a big game at Metropolitano Stadium, where Atletico Madrid plays host to Athletic Bilbao. This is a game between two teams currently next to each other in the standings, with Atleti sitting in third, ahead of Bilbao in fourth. 

Following last weekend's rather routine win against Valencia, scoring three without reply, the Atleti boys headed into a mammoth Copa del Rey showdown against Barcelona during the week, and wow, did that game deliver the goods, with the pair sharing eight goals, tying 4-4 in a truly fantastic first-leg encounter. With one eye on their mission in that competition, the hosts may not be entirely focused on this game, though, so is this an opportunity for the visitors?

While Saturday's hosts were providing the neutral soccer fan with one of the best games of the season on Tuesday evening, the visitors were resting and preparing for this game as they look to cement themselves in the top four. It's been a great season for the men from Bilbao, while they'll arrive in the Spanish capital in good form too, having lost none of their last six, destroying Valladolid last week by seven goals to one.

Our Atletico Madrid vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction

Given that the hosts were involved in that high octane game during the week, they may not be as fresh as the visitors, who can certainly hurt teams on the road. Let's face it, as good as Atleti can be at home, the Bilbao boys are one of LaLiga's best away teams this season, and they're very effective on the break, so don't be surprised if speedster and regular shooter Inaki Williams tests the home goalie. With Williams having shot with serious reuglarity in recent games, hitting the target 11 times in his last nine LaLiga games, odds of +110 are well worth taking. Our Atletico Madrid vs Athletic Bilbao Pick: Inaki Williams Over 0.5 Shots on Target.
