Prediction: 1-0
Betis
Athletic Bilbao and Real Betis face each other at Stadio San Mames in a highly-anticipated La Liga game. The Lions are eager to represent Spain in European competitions for yet another term and they will surely adopt an attack-minded approach in Thursday’s clash. All Capa, Martinez, Morcillo, and experienced midfielder Iker Munian should miss out with injuries, while Oihan Sancet is back from suspension.
Los Beticos, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form and given their poor record at San Mames, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. As for the Andalusian side, Edgar Gonzalez serves a one-game ban, while Luiz Felipe has joined the likes of Nabil Fekir, Borja Iglesias, and Victor Ruiz Torre in the recovery room. Defender Youssouf Sabaly faces race against the clock to be fit for the match.
Highlighted Player (Iker Muniain):
Iker Muniain was once considered one of the most talented players in Spain, but he obviously failed to reach his full potential. Munian is an attacking midfielder, who is capable of playing as a forward as well and he began his youth career at Chantrea. In 2005 he made probably the best decision of his career as he joined Athletic Bilbao youth academy.
He made his debut for Athletic Bilbao on 30 July, 2009 in a 1-0 loss to Young Boys in the Europa League. Iker Munian impressed in the 2011/2012 La Liga campaign with the Lions, scoring nine goals in all competitions, but he failed to make a bigger progress. The Athletic Bilbao product has been struggling with injuries and it has to be noted that the injury he suffered against Sevilla on 4 April, 2015 could have ruined his career.
However, he returned to action on 20 December, but he was playing below expectations in the second half of the season. Iker Munian made his Spain debut on 29 February, 2012 in a friendly against Venezuela. La Roja won the match 5-0 and Munian came as a substitute in the 74th minute of the match.
