Athletic Bilbao find themselves in sixth place head into their penultimate league fixture of the season, which will be enough to secure them Europa League football at its finish.
Real Sociedad are only in seventh by virtue of goal difference, with fifth-placed Villarreal just a point ahead in fifth. Things are very tight in the battle for Europe and Athletic can’t slip up, as we point out in our Athletic Bilbao vs Leganes preview.
- Eibar 0-1 Athletic Bilbao
- Athletic Bilbao 2-1 Betis
- Celta Vigo 0-3 Athletic Bilbao
- Alaves 1-0 Athletic Bilbao
Los Leones have been relying on the goals of Aritz Aduriz lately, which have taken them to seven wins out of their last eight home games at San Mames. Only Real Madrid and Barcelona have won at their stadium this campaign.
Leganes haven’t won on the road since October, taking just three points on their travels in LaLiga since the turn of the year, making it easy to make our Athletic Bilbao vs Leganes predictions.
- Villarreal 2-1 Leganes
- Leganes 3-0 Las Palmas
- Eibar 2-0 Leganes
- Leganes 4-0 Real Betis
Leganes have secured their safety in the league over their last two home games, beating Las Palmas and Real Betis in convincing fashion, meaning that Asier Garitano’s side are not in serious need of points this weekend.
As Ernesto Valverde’s side are desperate to secure themselves some Europa League football come the end of the campaign, a home victory is in our Athletic Bilbao vs Leganes picks.
