Fenerbahce Istanbul vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction & Picks - Europa League

 by Tyler Doty | in Soccer Picks

Turkish club Fenerbahçe, 15th in the Europa League, host the 2nd best team in the Europa League, Athletic Bilbao, this Wednesday, December 11, 2024 at  Istanbul's Ulker Stadium Sukru Saracoglu on the 6th day of the League phase of the Europa League. Fener have so far failed to shine on their home turf on the European stage, with a labored 2-1 win over Royale Union SG and a 1-1 draw with Manchester United on October 24th. Victory at Slavia Prague (1-2) on the final day of the season came in the closing stages of the game, with En-Nesyri scoring in the 85th minute. Athletic Bilbao, after a 1-1 draw in Rome, have now racked up 4 wins in a row on the European stage, against Alkmaar (2-0), Slavia Prague (1-0), Ludogorets (1-2) and Elfsborg (3-0) at the end of November. The Basque club, which has the best defense (2 goals conceded) in the Europa League, should prove resilient in Turkey.

Our Fenerbahce Istanbul vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction

Athletic Bilbao, co-leaders of the Europa League with Lazio Rome but ahead on goal difference, collected 13 points from the 15 distributed. The Basque club are proving themselves to be a solid force on the European stage, and this week they face a real litmus test in Turkey. The Spanish team, the best defense in the Europa League with just 2 goals conceded, has only lost 1 away game in its last 8 away matches in all competitions. Will Fenerbahçe, who were held to a 1-1 draw at home by MU and then beaten 1-3 by Galatasaray in the league, drop further points in Istanbul against Bilbao?

Our Fenerbahçe vs Athletic Bilbao prediction: Double Chance: Athletic Bilbao and Draw.
