Granada had won two of their last three matches in the league, beating Las Palmas, 1-0, and Betis, 4-1. These six points allowed the team to get back into relegation battle and might help the team avoid playing in Segunda next year. The visiting side are currently 19th in the league with 16 points gained in 23 matches but the team is only two points behind 17th place, which can be easily covered. We should note that the team doesn’t know how to play on the road as they’ve recorded three draws and nine defeats in 12 away matches this season with 9-37 aggregate goal difference.
Athletic get excellent chance to cover recent failures in upcoming match with a team that’s likely to be relegated so we should expect the hosts to prove their level with a confident victory.
Prediction for the match: Athletic Bilbao to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
