The 31st round of the Spanish championship will be opened by the encounter between Villarreal and Athletic from Bilbao. Both teams are fighting for a spot in the Europa League zone and one may not doubt in this situation, that the upcoming game will be very interesting and with lots of action. Bookmakers in this couple reckon, that the Yellow Submarine has better chances to win and it is hard to disagree with such action line.
After 30 played rounds in 2016-17 Spanish championship season, Villarreal have managed to gain 51 points, which allow the team to be on the fifth position in Primera tournament table. Unfortunately for Villarreal, it will be next to impossible to fight for the Top Four for them, as the gap from the fourth position, on which Sevilla are situated, is seven points.
Athletic, in their turn, managed to get four victories within the past five games, and only once the Basques did lose. The defeat happened on 18th March in a match against Real Madrid. Athletic are currently on the sixth position in Primera, the team has 50 points in the asset. But we should note the fact, that the team from Bilbao doesn’t look so good in away games and currently has only four victories in fourteen away encounters in Primera.
The domestic Villarreal are trying to get another victory in the championship of Spain and the future victim of the Yellow Submarine will be Athletic from the city of Bilbao. A bet on the hosts looks promising in the forthcoming game, especially considering away statistics of Athletic this season.
Prediction for the match: Villarreal to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
