Atletic Bilbao vs Villareal Match Preview

One more negative result for Athletic Bilbao in the previous round, as they lost 2-1 to Alaves. The way they performed, though, as well as the final score, left them a big disappointment. Even though they took early the lead in the first half, the home team managed to equalize shortly after, winning all threepoints in the added time.

This was the 10th consecutive match without a win for Bilbao, as their last win was early December, back in 2019. After this negative streak they dropped to the 11th place of the table, having 31 points. 

Villarreal did their best in Madrid against Atletico, but eventually, they were defeated by 3-1. They entered the pitch determined to win and managed to open the scoreline, but the superiority of the home team prevailed and finally they didn't get anything positive from the match.

This was their second defeat in the last 10 rounds and now they remain outside the European spots, since after 25 rounds Villareal are 8th-placed with 38 points.

Bilbao remain winless for almost 3 months and want to return to winning ways as they are far away from the top-six places. Villareal, from the other side, are in good shape lately and want the victory to stay close to the top-4 of the table. Both teams will look for the three points here, my call is BTTS: Yes, offered at 1.95 odds with Betshop.
