A Sports Betting Pick by Gladiator
Football: Spanish La Liga - Round 19
Estadio San Mamés (Bilbao), Spain
Wednesday, 4th December 2024 - Kick Off 21:00 CET
Ath Bilbao
Athletic Bilbao is having a solid season, currently sitting 5th in La Liga, but their recent form has been inconsistent, with three draws and two wins in their last five matches.
Despite their strong position, their inability to convert dominant performances into wins has raised concerns. Playing at home at San Mames is always an advantage for Bilbao, where they often perform at a higher level.
However, Athletic Bilbao may struggle against Real Madrid's offensive firepower, particularly on counters and set pieces.
Real Madrid
Real Madrid is in excellent form, riding high on solid performances in both La Liga and the Champions League. With key players like Vinicius Junior and Bellingham leading the attack, Los Blancos sometimes look unstoppable.
That said, the team is dealing with injuries to some critical players, but their squad depth has proven capable of handling such challenges.
Real Madrid is currently second in the league and cannot afford to drop points as they chase Barcelona.
The Betting Verdict
This match promises to be a high-intensity clash as both teams are in good positions in the table. Real Madrid’s attack has been consistent, and Bilbao’s counter-attacking ability can trouble the visitors.
Both teams have shown tendencies to leave gaps in defence, especially when pressing forward.
“Both Teams to Score: Yes”, a market at odds of 1.67, is a strong bet, reflecting the likelihood of a fast-paced and open game.
