Barcelona-Athletic Bilbao is a match of the tenth day of La Liga and is played on Sunday at 9 pm: likely formations, predictions, TV and streaming.
Before the break, Barcelona lost ground to Real Madrid. Xavi’s team did not go beyond a draw (2-2) on the field of Granada. A draw nabbed only 5′ from the end, after being down by two goals, thanks to Sergi Roberto’s kick. A demonstration, however, of enormous character.
The Catalans are an undefeated team this season, one of the few around Europe that can boast this score. And of course when they resume on Sunday night against Valverde’s Athletic Bilbao, the goal is to win. Without a doubt. Especially at home. And try to resume the path interrupted by the home draw. Xavi has also discovered Yamal this season. A very young man who has already found the goal this season and of whom not only is being talked about but seen to be very good. A player who can become decisive. And who could also find a starting jersey against the Basques. Who cannot be scary.
Bilbao, in any case, is living a good moment of form: there are three victories in the last five outings even if, in the last three crossings against Barcelona came as many defeats. And this time, too, at the Stadio Olimpico, which hosts the Catalans’ home matches this season because of work at Camp Nou, it should be so. Too much difference in goals. Too much difference on the pitch between two formations fighting for something very different.
The Prediction
Barcelona will come back to win against Athletic Bilbao in a match with at least three total goals.
