Almeria vs Athletic Bilbao Betting Tips

Almeria vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction 1: Athletic Bilbao to win

Athletic Bilbao has had four victories in its first six games, which is the finest start in recent memory. They stand a solid chance of continuing this streak when they visit recently promoted Almeria in the following round. Almeria is a new team in the league, and they have had a difficult start with only four points after six games. We thus anticipate Athletic to win the game after leading at the half because they are playing it at Bilbao, one of the league's hottest home venues.

Almeria vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction 2: Under 2.5 Total Goals

The Basque squad played six La Liga games this season, winning three of them while conceding goals in the other three. However, those three clean sheets came in the team's first three games. Almeria, meantime, has gone three games without scoring in the league, and we expect that trend to continue at least for the matchup with Athletic in Bilbao.
