Athletic Bilbao vs Real Betis Preview

Athletico Bilbao enter this home game after 2 consecutive wins.  Playing at home gives them an opportunity to take that figure to 3.

They are currently 6^th in the table, just 1 point behind Villarreal who are 5^th.

They have won 4 of their last 6 games and have won 7 of their last 8 home games.

They are one of the most difficult teams to play when they are at home.

They currently lead 7^th placed Sociedad by just 1 point and would love to get nothing but 3 points in this game so that they can keep that position on the table.

Real Betis are 14^th in the league table after collecting 37 points from 33 league games.

They are currently on a 2 game winning streak, and would fancy their chances of making it 3 with a win in this encounter.

Real Betis defeated Celta Vigo 0-1 in their last away game, however, they got no points from the previous 3 away games, but they have managed to score a goal in their last 7 away matches.

Losing this game would see them drop to 15^th position if Malaga wins their own fixture.
