Betis vs Ath Bilbao Prediction & Tips
Real Betis may feel some frustration at not having spent the week at the top of the table with three wins, after conceding goals in away draws against Elche (1-1) and Celta Vigo (1-1). The Green and Whites still have the opportunity to end August without defeat for the second consecutive year, going into their last game before the break with only two defeats in their previous 18 La Liga matches (W10, D6, L2). It should be noted, however, that five of their last seven domestic league games have ended in draws (W1, D5, L1).
The Seville-based side faces a tough and demanding battle against Athletic Club, who visit La Cartuja after starting the season with two hard-fought home wins. The team has continued its good form from last season, winning five of its last six La Liga matches and now has the opportunity to win its first three league games of a La Liga campaign for the first time since 2009-10. Their recent record in Andalusia is very positive, having managed at least a draw in ten of their last 11 league visits to Andalusian teams (W4, D6, L1), although the only exception was against Betis.
