Girona vs Athletic Bilbao
Competition – Spanish Primera
Stadium – Municipal Montilivi
Date: 29th March 2019
Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT
Girona will be looking to continue their recent strong run of form in the month of March that has seen them win three of four games. Even the game they failed to win ended in a thriller as they were beaten narrowly 2-3 by Valencia.
The home side is 9 points off 6th position which should be their target now and fans should expect them to come into this game looking to get all three points and end the month of March strongly.
Girona have often struggled for wins at home and their loss to Valencia was the 4th time in 5 games that they have been beaten at home so their fans shouldn’t be overly optimistic about this one either.
Athletic Bilbao have had one of their most underwhelming seasons ever as they look to move up the league table.
They come here 3 points clear of their host after securing two draws and a more impressive win over Atletico Madrid in their last three games.
Bilbao have been struggling to win games away from home but have managed to score regularly so expect them to at least score a goal in this game.
This is one of the tightest betting markets of the week as Girona are currently trading as very slight favourites to come out on top however the odds are extremely close and a splash of cash could see Bilbao begin the game as favourites.
Goal markets point to a low-scoring game as under 2.5 goals is trading odds-on while Cristhian Stuani is clear favourite to score the opening goal of the game.
This game gets underway at 20:00 BST.
