Athletic Bilbao play this season very good. They are standing on the 4th position and they are on the good way to qualify in some of European competitions next season.
Athletic’s “secret weapon” is their good performance when they are playing at home. They are still undefeated at home (6-2-0). 3 weeks ago they defeated Barca at home 1-0, while 2 days ago they have smashed Celta 4-0 in the 1/16 finals Copa del Rey. An important defender Aymeric Laporte (15/1) was suffered a minor injury on that match, so he is doubtful. No other missings in home side, but I believe players are tired because they had only two days to rest.
On the other side, Rayo Vallecano is in the relegation zone and they will fight until the end of the season to stay in Primera. Midfielders Sebastián Fernández (2/0) and José Carlos (1/0) and striker Joaquín Larrivey (9/2) are all injured, while left defender Nacho (9/0) is out due to suspension.
Athletic Bilbao is a big favorite in this match and I expect their win.
Athletic Bilbao vs Rayo Vallecano Betting Tip: 1 @ 1.45
