Prediction: 1-1
Athletic Bilbao
Villarreal and Athletic Bilbao go head to head at Estadio de la Ceramica in what is expected to be a close La Liga encounter. The Yellow Submarine aim to build on a 2-1 win over Getafe and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Both Tajon Buchanan and Thierno Barry are major doubts after limping off with injuries in the last league match, with Yeremi Pino and Gerard Moreno being ready to step up.
The Lions, on the other hand, are eager to stay in the Champions League berth, but beating Villarreal at Estadio de la Ceramica is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team ahead of the trip to the Castellon province. The Williams brothers should start once again.
Highlighted Player (Nicolas Pépé):
Born in France to parents of Ivorian descent, Nicolas Pepe became a full Ivory Coast international in 2016. In a symbolic twist of events, Pepe was handed his Ivory Coast debut in a goalless draw against his birth nation France days after receiving his first-ever call-up.
Pepe began his career in the lower leagues in Poitiers in 2012, before moving to Angers a year later. Having proven his qualities in the second-string side, Pepe was instated in Angers’ first team in 2013. Four years later – which included a season-long loan spell at Orleans – Nicolas Pepe was transferred to Lille. Les Dogues beat several sides to the signature of this pacey winger who is no stranger to scoring goals. Quick with his feet, Pepe can be deployed on the right wing and as a centre-forward.
The Ivory Coast international is unpredictable in his movement and not easy to keep an eye on, especially because of his powerful left foot.
Highlighted Team (Athletic Bilbao):
Athletic Club (mostly known as Athletic de Bilbao) is a Spanish football club from the Bask region which is playing currently in the Primera Division. The club from Bilbao is playing in the highest Spanish division since its founded in 1928 and is next to Real Madrid and FC Barcelona for a longest period of time in the Primera Division.
