Real Sociedad-Athletic Bilbao betting preview
A more than hundred years long rivalry continues this Sunday. Real Sociedad welcome Athletic Bilbao in the 133rd Basque Derby. The hosts are number five while the visitors are one place higher in the Spanish league. The both sides are in great runs, which makes this game one of the most interesting of this round.
This season Real Sociedad are great in the attack with 33 goals scored. Only three teams scored more goals in the Spanish Primera. The prizes mainly go to their strikers Griezmann and Vela, who between them have 19 goals. For this game, their tactic will be the same as usual – try to outscore the opponent.
In Primera division, Athletic Bilbao are doing very well recently. Four wins and one draw in the last five games got them on the high fourth place. They are planning to stay there till the end of the season, but there are lots of teams who will be looking to crush their dreams. That goes especially for their arch rivals, Real Sociedad. This Sunday, Athletic will travel to San Sebastian to give their best, but for them even a draw would be fine.
Real Sociedad-Athletic Bilbao Prediction
This match means a lot for both sides and I expect an interesting duel. It is ungrateful to predict the final outcome, but plenty of goals look certain.
