This weekend’s LaLiga matches begin in the north of the country, as Elche make the long journey up to Athletic Bilbao. After hitting a rough patch, the visiting team will hope to return to positive form by facing a Bilbao side that has their hands full, with league, cup and UCL fixtures to juggle.

After what was an impressive start to newly-promoted Elche, Sarabia’s men are now going seven LaLiga games without a win, claiming just three points. Whilst grabbing wins may not be their strong suit, Elche haven’t done too badly in producing goals, scoring in all but four games this season. 

Plus, Bilbao haven’t exactly been in tip-top shape this season, likely due to being very occupied with multiple competitions, resulting in goals given away in 79% of their overall games.

Our Athletic Bilbao vs Elche Prediction

When looking into Elche’s approach in their most relevant away games, without a doubt one of their most effective players is Silva. Out of seven games, Elche have put away six goals in total, of which the Portuguese has contributed three. 

Additionally, there’s no worries about hesitation in front of goal as the forward is shooting plenty, in fact he is producing the most shots out of Elche’s men in similar away games, averaging 2.37 per game. After a short spell of injury, Silva has sprung back to regular playing time in their last two games, in which he scored their only goal in their last away game to Real Sociedad.

Our Athletic Bilbao vs Elche Pick: Andre Silva to Score.
