Barcelona – Athletic Bilbao PREDICTION & PREVIEW (11.01.2017)

Both will mark: Yes

After the extraordinary match that both teams showed us in the first leg, we already have here the most interesting round of all matches of this match day.

In San Mamés the Basques gave a sovereign review to the Barca in the first part but then suffered in the second half especially after staying with nine for more than fifteen minutes.

The result seems short and sure that Bilbao will not go to maintain it but to get some goal that will further complicate the tie to Barcelona. With Aduriz, Williamns and company and playing against it is not unreasonable to hurt him.

If you look at the league matches, Barcelona has conceded a goal in 5 of the eight that they have played in their stadium while Bilbao has scored out in 6 of the eight they have played. This gives us a few percentages that are worth taking advantage of, also in cup are always different encounters, with less precautions and more propitious to get goals.

I assume that Barcelona will score and I hope and trust that the Basques will not leave empty and that this bet is a winner.
