Celta Vigo vs Athletic Bilbao Preview, Prediction and Betting Tips: Athletic Bilbao to profit from Celta’s European commitments

EVENT ENDED!

An upcoming Europa League semi-final clash against Manchester United will be what Celta Vigo have in mind this weekend, while Athletic Bilbao will be fully focused on the league.

Match Preview

Eduardo Berizzo is likely to rotate heavily with his home side, with it definitely thinkable that all 10 of his outfield players will be second string. Los Leones will be looking to profit from that.

    - Celta 0-2 Eibar

    - Granada 0-3 Celta

    - Celta 0-1 Real Betis

    - Sevilla 2-1 Celta

Last time out in Balaidos, Real Betis were able to win 1-0 against Celta, despite the visitors having an atrocious away record. Resting players will have a huge effect on the outcome of this one.

Athletic Bilbao, meanwhile, have been improving a lot on the road of late. With a Europa League finish in their sights for the end of the campaign, they’ve won three of their last four away from home.

    - Villarreal 3-1 Athletic Bilbao

    - Athletic Bilbao 5-1 Las Palmas

    - Eibar 0-1 Athletic Bilbao

    - Athletic Bilbao 2-1 Real Betis

Celta Vigo vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction and Betting Advice

The away side haven’t got any fresh injury concerns after beating Real Betis midweek, with Ernesto Valverde likely to keep things very consistent in terms of his team selection.

With Celta having their eyes set firmly on a European prize, leaving LaLiga to be neglected, Athletic Bilbao will fancy their chances of taking yet another three points on their travels.
