Our Predictions
Bet365 favors Bilbao heavily, and recent form suggests they’re tough at home. Their last encounter was 3-0, so a clean sheet combined with a narrow win makes sense. Both teams scoring is less likely given Bilbao’s solid defense at home and Girona’s away struggles. The odds support a tight, low-scoring game—likely a 1-0 or 2-0 to Bilbao.
While less conservative, Bilbao has the firepower to net a couple, and Girona can grab a goal too—especially if they push for an away scalp. A higher-scoring, action-packed match isn’t out of the cards, especially considering Bilbao’s attack and Girona’s tendency to concede at times.
A draw seems plausible given both teams’ recent form and the history of tight contests. Both sides could find the net, making a high-scoring draw appealing. Odds at 4.00 highlight the value of this scenario, especially with Girona capable of snatching a point on the road.
