Spain - LaLiga

On Friday evening, following the international break, the top flight of Spanish soccer returns with the Valencian derby, which leads us into Saturday, when four games will take place. One of those four games sees Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao clash at Camp Nou, which is currently operating at a reduced capacity.
The hosts will be hoping to secure a win that would keep the pressure on league leaders Real Madrid, while the visitors go in search of a positive result that could drive them into the all-important top six. The former seems more likely given that the Barca boys have won each of their last five home LaLiga games. On the road, the visitors are without a win since August, which doesn't exactly point towards success in Catalonia.

Our Barcelona vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction
We know that visiting Barcelona is a tough task for most LaLiga teams, even those that can challenge towards the upper echelons of the standings, but let's face it, as strong as the hosts are, they've not been great at the back of late. Both teams have scored in each of Barcelona's last ten in all competitions.
Moreover, the visitors can be very, very effective on the break. Unfortunately, the Bilbao boys do tend to come up short at the back on the road, so don't expect to see an away-day clean sheet here. Everything points towards a game where both teams find the net, even more so than the early odds suggest.
Our Barcelona vs Athletic Bilbao Pick: Both Teams to Score.
