Prediction

  • Athletic Club have won their previous three matches against Valencia, but they are dealing with a more diverse and youthful side.
  • When Javi Guerra plays for Valencia, they are placed at a significant advantage going forward. The midfielder averages one shot on target per match and is facilitated by the more deep-lying Pepelu.
  • Ruben Baraja has invented a new and exciting style for Valencia this season, but will do well to unlock Athletic Club's rock solid defence. A narrow Bilbao victory could be likely, especially if the Williams brothers, Inaki and Nico, are firing on all cylinders.
