Match Analysis

In their last three matches, Athletic Bilbao has demonstrated mixed form. Following a goalless draw against Sociedad, they managed a narrow home victory over Las Palmas, but then succumbed to a 1-0 defeat against Real Madrid. Despite these results, Bilbao has maintained a solid defense, recording three clean sheets in their last five games. Their recent offensive statistics show an average of 2.4 goals scored per game, indicating a potent attack that will be eager to exploit Alaves' vulnerabilities. Alaves, on the other hand, has shown resilience with a win against Sociedad and draws against both Athletico Madrid and Sevilla in their last three outings. They have managed to keep three clean sheets in their recent matches, although they have conceded an average of 1.4 goals per game. While their attack has been less prolific, averaging 1.6 goals per game, they have shown the capability to grind out results, which could be crucial in their fight against relegation.

Final Prediction

Athletic Bilbao's strong defensive record and superior league position give them the edge in this encounter. Their ability to control the game and keep opponents at bay could be decisive, especially against an Alaves side that has struggled to consistently find the back of the net. One key factor to watch will be Bilbao's attacking efficiency, which could determine if they can break through Alaves' defenses and secure the expected victory.
