Athletic Club will be looking to keep their recent good form going this weekend as they take on Villarreal in the league. A win for Athletic Club could see them move back into the Champions League positions.
La Liga Preview
This season has been excellent for Athletic Bilbao so far, and they will be full of confidence after winning the Copa del Rey. They are aiming to secure a Champions League spot by the end of the season.
Bilbao is currently fifth in the standings, trailing Atletico Madrid by just two points. A win this weekend could see them back in the top-four, but they need to find consistency after just two wins in their last five games.
Villarreal, sitting tenth, also have European aspirations. They have won four of their last five matches and are only eight points off the top seven. However, they need a positive result this weekend after their recent defeat.
Athletic Club vs Villarreal Head to Head
Bilbao has a strong record against Villarreal, winning two of the last three meetings and losing just once in the last ten. Villarreal’s only win in that period was a 5-1 home victory last season.
Athletic Club vs Villarreal Prediction
Bilbao are favored to get their league form back on track this weekend, especially with their confidence and record against Villarreal. Bet on Athletic Club vs Villarreal with 22Bet!
