Valladolid has the most conceded goals in La Liga. So its place in the relegation zone is not a surprise, and it will be difficult for them to stay in the elite next season as well. They started the season with a home win of 1-0 against Espanyol, but they have not won in their last five consecutive home matches, losing the last three of them with the same result - 1-2.
Athletic Bilbao has lost only one of their last 12 matchesAthletic Bilbao continues to fight for the top spots, although they have had draws in the last two rounds. At least on Thursday, they did not allow any surprises as they won as expected with a quick comeback against Ludogorets for a final score of 2-1. In their last 12 matches, they have only one loss in all competitions. However, it was quite dramatic, with a goal in added time from a penalty kick during their visit to Girona.
Prediction: Athletic Bilbao to winValladolid is clearly not doing well, and the reason for this is their inconsistent defense. Athletic Bilbao may also find a gap in it and is definitely more likely to reach victory in this match.
