Athletic Bilbao – Real Sociedad, Prediction – La Liga

⬆️ Bilbao is now far more stable at home

Bilbao finished last and started poorly this season in La Liga with 4 consecutive home losses. After the first round, however, Athletic already have 4 wins in their last 5 games at home and only the 0-2 loss to Celta was slightly shocking in early December, but then Bilbao just played very poorly in the last half hour of the match and all got wrong for the team.

📉 Sociedad began to sink firmly

Real Sociedad started this round in 3rd place in the standings, but after only 3 points in their last 6 games, it can definitely be said that the team is in crisis. Real stopped scoring goals, was outplayed in the midfield, the ball was easily taken away from the team and he made easy mistakes in defense, which lead to goal chances and goals from the opponents.

A tense and cautious match without many goals

 Expert view: Bilbao’s defense is very strong. This is a typical defensive team that relies heavily on strong defense and this is even more evident in their home matches. Something very bad for Real Sociedad. We mentioned that they no longer score so many goals. Actually, Athletic should be the favorite here, but Sociedad can’t lose forever, so we will not risk to bet on somebody’s win, but will bet on the logical Under 2.5 goals at 1.60.
