Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
All eyes will be on Estadio de Mestalla when Valencia and Athletic Club face each other in a highly-anticipated La Liga game. Los Che do not seem to be at the top of their games, with the team losing each of their last three league matches, and, as a result, their Primera Division status is in great danger. Gabriel Paulista serves the last of his two-game ban, while both Justin Kluivert and Nico Gonzalez are sidelined with injuries.
Meanwhile, the Basques proved their worth in a 4-1 win over Cadiz, with Oihan Sancet scoring a hat-trick. Defender Yuri Berchiche is banned for the match, while key forward Inaki Williams faces race against the clock to be fit for Saturday’s clash. Inigo Martinez is a major doubt as well. Anyhow, we predict that the Lions are going to take advantage of Valencia’s poor form.
Highlighted Player (Edinson Cavani):
Edinson Cavani is a professional footballer who plays for Paris Saint-Germain as a striker. The Uruguayan attacker was born in Salto on 14 February, 1987 and he began his senior career at Danubio. In 2007 he moved to Europe, signing a deal with Serie A outfit Palermo.
After scoring 34 goals in 109 league appearances for the Sicilian outfit, he joined Napoli in 2010. You should have in mind that Cavani scored a brace on his Napoli debut against Elfsborg in the Europa League. The Uruguay forward scored 78 goals in 104 Serie A games for the Partenopei and, as a result, big-spending French club PSG decided to sign him in 2013.
Cavani scored 19 goals for les Parisiens in the 2015/2016 Ligue 1 campaign, but he was in Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s shadow during the season and he started a number of games from the bench. In 2011 the PSG attacker won the Copa America trophy with Uruguay as la Celeste hammered Paraguay 3-0 in the game for the title.
