Betting preview – Bilbao vs Real Madrid – 23.09.2015
Athletic Bilbao and Real Madrid will offer us the most attractive duel of the 5th round in the Spanish Primera Division. The game is scheduled Wednesday evening at 20:00.
The home team has not impressed us so far, proof that Bilbao recorded only one victory and three defeats in four league matches. The Bascs are on the 13th position right now, with three points and a bad goal difference, 4-7. It’s good to know that Bilbao won the last meeting with Real Madrid here, 1-0 in March 2015.
The Galactics are coming after an impressive win in the last trip, 6-0 at Espanyol Barcelona. Real Madrid have an impressive goal difference, 12-0, the best one in Spain by far. Even so, they are second on the table, with 10 points out of 12. Bale and James Rodriguez are injured and they will not travel here for this duel. Sergio Ramos is expected to be back after a shoulder problem in the last week.
Bilbao vs Real Madrid probable lineups:
Bilbao (4-2-3-1): Iraizoz – Marcos, Etxeita, Laporte, Lekue – Benat, Jose, Susaeta, Garcia, Gomez – Aduriz.
Real Madrid (4-2-3-1): Navas – Carvajal, Ramos, Varane, Marcelo – Modric, Kroos – Vazquez, Isco, Ronaldo – Benzema.
Bilbao vs Real Madrid prediction: 2 @ 1.65
It’s going to be a very interesting game, as we said, with Real Madrid clearly in pole-position. We expect them to win three points here, having all the arguments in their favour.
