Athletic Bilbao vs Sevilla Preview
Estadio San Mames will be packed when Athletic Bilbao welcome Sevilla in their first La Liga game of the new campaign. Athletic are eager to make a flying start and will be looking to build around a squad that has remained largely unchanged, with no new signings arriving in the summer. The club chiefs did, however, manage to keep hold of star winger Nico Williams, while Unai Gomez, Mikel Vesga, and Urko Izeta have left. Athletic have been in impressive scoring form recently, netting 2.80 goals per game across their last 10 matches, while also keeping five clean sheets.
Sevilla, meanwhile, already have one competitive game under their belt after beating Rayo Vallecano 2-1 at the weekend. However, Kike Salas will miss out through suspension after his red card against Rayo, while Marcao and Alfonso Gonzalez are both expected to be sidelined with injuries. Sevilla have been defensively solid of late, conceding just 0.80 goals per game in their last 10 matches, but their attacking numbers are less convincing, with only 0.90 goals scored per game. Athletic have also won 63% of their last eight away games, but their recent home form has been less impressive, making this a potentially competitive encounter.
Athletic have the stronger attacking numbers and are a real force to be reckoned with at home. Therefore, Home Win is our main betting tip for this round 2 matchup, alongside Under 3.5 and Under 2.5 Goals (Sevilla's last 10 matches have averaged only 1.70 goals per game).
This Primera Division match will be played on Saturday, 22 August 2026 at 16:00.
