Real Madrid hosts Athletic Bilbao in round 9 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Wednesday, December 1st at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu (Madrid)
In the last round, Real Madrid beat one of the competitors in the fight for the champion’s title, Sevilla. The final whistle of the referee fixed the score of 2-1 in favor of Galacticos. Karim Benzema and Vinicius Junior again scored goals. Carlo Ancelotti's charges have established themselves as the leader of the standings. They have 33 points after 14 rounds. The gap from the 2nd place is four points. At the moment, the Whites are considered the most likely contenders for the champion’s title. Real Madrid has not lost at home so far: four victories and two draws with a goal difference of 15-5. The Whites are the most productive team in the current championship. They scored 34 goals in 14 matches (with 15 conceded).

Athletic Bilbao tied against Granada in the last round (2-2). As a result, the streak without victories amounted to five matches (four draws and one defeat). It is noteworthy that four of those five matches ended with Under 2.5 goals scored. In general, the Basques score and concede little in the current draw of the Spanish Championship (13 and ten goals, respectively). Eleven matches ended with Under 2.5 goals scored. Marcelino's men have not suffered a single away defeat in the current LaLiga: one victory and six draws with a goal difference of 4-3. In the current season, Athletic Bilbao has never scored more than two goals in one game.
In the last Spanish championship, Real Madrid twice turned out to be stronger than Athletic Bilbao (0-1 and 3-1). Fourteen of the last 16 head-to-head matches at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu have ended in a victory for the hosts. Now Real Madrid is much stronger than Athletic Bilbao. Moreover, the Whites will play at their native stadium. As you know, they are still unbeaten at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. Yes, the Basques haven’t lost on foreign pitches, but they have tied six times (with only one victory). I strongly doubt that they will be able to beat Real Madrid in its current state. I think it makes sense to come up with something. The best bet is the home team's victory with a -1 handicap.
Prediction for the match: Real Madrid to win with -1.0 handicap
