The first Basque derby is here; Athletic Bilbao will be playing host to Deportivo Alaves on Saturday. Back-to-back defeats have landed Alaves in sixth, while Athletic, with a game in hand, are ninth. Athletic won this encounter three of the last four times they hosted, and our prediction backs a continuation of that.

The home team has an advantage in having had extra rest days before this game. Poor pitch conditions occasioned the postponement of their match against Levante. That delayed Athletic’s ambition of going undefeated in four matches.

Their last outing ended in a 1-1 draw against Elche, having earlier beaten Atletico Madrid and Celta Vigo. Four wins only in their last 10 home matches call for an improvement, but Athletic will be confident of doing better.

Last season, Alaves won their away match at Athletic. They will be praying for a similar outcome here to address their recent slump.

The visitors started the season strongly, collecting 10 points from their opening four matches. However, six games in, they are still stuck on 10 points and seem in danger of losing a third straight league outing.

Last time out, Alaves fell 1-0 to Valencia, and with only one of their 10 points coming on the road, this doesn’t look too promising for the visitors.

Our Athletic Bilbao vs Alavés Prediction

Back-to-back defeats mark the darkest period for Alaves this season, as they had started really well. They can at least hope to replicate last season’s performance, winning away at Athletic. That, though, will still be an uphill task, as they face a host that’s well rested and on a three-game unbeaten stretch.

In their last five visits to Athletic Bilbao, in all competitions, they only managed that one win. In all the rest, Athletic won, and we are backing the same. Our prediction for Athletic Bilbao v Alaves is that Athletic Bilbao wins.
