Barcelona vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction & Picks - LaLiga

 by Bradley Gibbs in LaLiga Picks

After an interesting first round of fixtures, we gear up for the second helping of Spanish LaLiga action. At the world famous Camp Nou, Barcelona will host Athletic Bilbao on Saturday. Can the Spanish giants make it two wins from two as they look to improve on last season? Will the visitors dig their heels in and remain unbeaten? The hosts are strong favorites in the early betting, which to be honest, is tough to argue with.

Our Barcelona vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction

It's hard to look beyond the hosts here, let's be honest, but should we expect Xavi's men to completely run riot? Absolutely not. This Bilbao team can definitely dig in and frustrate, we saw that when they drew 1-1 last weekend. Moreover, the pair have a recent history of playing out low-scoring LaLiga games, with each of Barcelona's last two home wins against Athletic containing just a single goal. If the visitors look to frustrate, they can stay in the fight, but can they hold out for the whole game? Definitely not. Our Prediction: Barcelona to Win & Under 3.5 Goals.
