Athletic Bilbao vs Slavia Praha Betting Tips - Bilbao to win
Spanish hosts Athletic Bilbao will be keen to maintain winning momentum when they take on Slavia Praha this week. With the Europa League final scheduled to take place at their home venue San Mamés Barria, the Basque club will be determined to boost their hopes of progression against an in-form Slavia side.
The Czechia side arrives in Spain unbeaten in their last nine matches, with eight victories picked up during that run, including impressive wins against Lille (2:1) and city rivals Sparta (2:1).
Two games into their Europa League game, Slavia remains unbeaten, having picked up a 2:0 win in Bulgaria against Ludogorets, before a 1:1 draw with Ajax in Prague three weeks ago.
Slavia have a mixed record in away Europa League ties with three wins and four defeats recorded from their last eight road trips since 2021.
While in good form this season, Jindřich Trpišovský´s side face a stiff test against a Bilbao side that has claimed victories in three of their last four home fixtures.
Indeed, Bilbao are usually a force at their intimidating home with just one defeat recorded in their last 30 home fixtures since August 2023. Ernesto Valverde´s men won five of their last eight games in Bilbao.
Ultimately, while sure to be a competitive contest, I´m confident Bilbao can maintain their winning run with another victory at San Mamés Barria.
Athletic Bilbao team news
Head Coach Valverde is unable to call on three first-team players on Thursday. Oihan Sancet, Mikel Vesga and Unai Simón all remain absent for the home side.
