The first fixture in Sunday’s LaLiga soccer sees Real Oviedo taking on Athletic Bilbao at Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere and, it’s fair to say, some points would be very much appreciated by both sides.
Due a postponement in Round 23, Los Carbayones have not hit the field for well over a week, during which time their opposition have played four matches. So, when it comes to rest and preparation (or lack of), the home side should have the slight upper-hand hosting a fatigued Bilbao team.
Moreover, Oviedo experienced their first win last time out in 15 matches, making it six games on home soil undefeated, surely giving them a boost going into this tough game. Plus, we mustn't ignore the unexpected form of the visitors, who have been underwhelming in terms of results and defensive abilities this season, perhaps struggling to juggle the league with both UCL and cup commitments.

Our Real Oviedo vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction
With all things considered, this is a very good opportunity for the hosts; another three points will jump them up one place, overtaking Levante, so their offensive players should be fired up.
Especially Ilyas Chaira who has been their most active forward this season, noting a very appealing 2.53 shots per game, typically performing better in terms of shots on home ground too.
Specifically, when facing the most relevantly ranked teams at home, Chaira is averaging 3.01 shots per game, with 1.08 hitting the target per game. Therefore, odds of -115 simply look too generous.
Our Real Oviedo vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction: Ilyas Chaira 1+ Shot on Target.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
