Match Preview

Neither of these teams have managed to get into a particularly good run of form so far this season, ahead of our Levante vs Athletic Bilbao preview and soccer odds, with both coaches definitely under pressure to provide some points in a bleak period.

Athletic Bilbao have really struggled away from home this campaign, and this weekend should be no different. Los Leones have often bared their teeth when travelling away from San Mames, but their defensive record has been abysmal.

Our Levante vs Athletic Bilbao predictions are based on the fact that the away side can’t seem to remain watertight on the road, which makes it very tempting to back some goals within our La Liga tips.

The away side have only managed to keep one clean sheet on the road this season, and given that Levante also need to get some points on the board quickly, they’ll likely be a big threat to continuing along this theme.

Levante vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction and Betting Advice

Athletic have drawn two of their last five away games in La Liga, falling to defeats against the likes of Valencia, Leganes and Celta Vigo. Given that the three teams that they have lost to have been in excellent form at certain points of the campaign, it is more understandable that they have struggled in those particular contests.

10Bet offer great value on a draw between these two sides, which looks to be a handy bet given that both of their respective defensive records have been very poor recently. Levante are also winless in their last four games at Estadio Ciutat de Valencia, and given that they have picked up a couple of important injuries it is likely that they will set up negatively and look to keep things tight.

Deportivo La Coruna, Valencia and Getafe have all drawn at this ground during the current La Liga season, and Athletic could well be the fourth. Kuko Ziganda’s men have struggled to control and dictate games this season, and against an opposition that will likely pack the midfield, it will be very tight indeed.

Our Levante vs Athletic Bilbao bets back this to be fairly entertaining games, mainly down to the fact that both defences have been leaky this season, but they both have some terrific attacking options that will be deployed at either end of the field on Sunday.

Morales has been scoring with regularity for the home side, while Inaki Williams and Aritz Aduriz can combine to devastating effect for the visitors. Markel Susaeta is another player that has been in good form of late. Ladbrokes offer good value on there being three clear goals or more this weekend, and given the fact that Levante conceded five against Atleti recently, it’s likely.

Our Levante vs Athletic Bilbao betting tips suggest that the away side will try and snatch three much-needed points, but the defensive woes of both of these teams should shine through. Mix that in with capable attacking talents and a high-scoring draw seems to be the best way to go.
