La Liga
Sky Sports Football, 8pm Monday

Twenty-two of Athletic Bilbao’s 30 league matches have produced two goals or fewer, one of which was a 1-1 draw against Villarreal in Bilbao.

Villarreal are by some distance the lowest scorers in the top six and have bagged just five goals in their last seven in all competitions so expect a tight tussle.

Recommendation
Draw
1pt 5-2 general

Key stat
Athletic’s last four away games in La Liga have resulted in 2-0 defeats.
