We predict Athletic Bilbao 1-1 Girona. Athletic Bilbao drew two of their last five La Liga matches, and Girona drew two times in their last five league matches as well. Both teams have lacked fluidity in recent weeks, and are likely to share the spoils in Bilbao, plus the reverse tie ended in a draw.
There’s a chance Athletic Bilbao vs Girona will end with BTTS. The last time both teams met in Catalonia, both teams scored as it ended in a 1-1 draw. The likelihood of both good goal-scoring teams getting on the scoreboard is high.
Athletic Bilbao have endured mixed results in recent weeks, having won two and drawn two of their last five La Liga matches. They were held to a frustrating goalless draw by 20th-placed Almeria last time out, but they are keen to bounce back to winning ways to continue their top four chase.
Girona are in similar form, with two wins and two draws in their last five La Liga matches. They lost heavily 4-0 to Real Madrid away from home last time out, and will search for a response this weekend in Bilbao. Despite their recent dip in form, Girona remain in the 2nd position with 56 points, 10 points clear of Athletic Bilbao.
