Match Analysis

Ath Bilbao's recent performances have been less than stellar, as they are coming off a tough streak with two losses and a draw in their last three matches. A 3-2 defeat against Sociedad, a narrow 1-0 loss to Getafe, and a goalless draw with Elche highlight their recent form. Despite these setbacks, their defensive metrics are strong, with an average of only 0.8 goals conceded per match over the last five games and a solid expected goals conceded rate of 0.53. On the other hand, Oviedo has also struggled lately, with two draws and a loss in their recent fixtures. They managed a 0-0 draw against Osasuna and a high-scoring 3-3 draw with Girona but were defeated 2-0 by Espanol. Defensively, Oviedo has been shaky, conceding an average of 1.8 goals per game in their last five matches, which could be a significant concern against a team like Ath Bilbao. Their offensive output, however, averages at 1.0 goals per match, which suggests some potential to challenge Bilbao's defense.

Final Prediction

Ath Bilbao has a definitive edge in this matchup, primarily due to Oviedo's defensive frailties and Bilbao's superior defensive metrics. While Bilbao has not been prolific in front of goal recently, their ability to limit opponents' scoring opportunities gives them a significant advantage. A key factor to watch will be whether Ath Bilbao can capitalize on Oviedo's defensive vulnerabilities to secure a much-needed win.
