Two of the in-form sides in Spain will collide in La Liga this weekend, as Valencia and Athletic Bilbao both look to continue their winning sequences when they clash at the Mestalla. But, which side will claim maximum points on Sunday?
It has been an incredible period in the Spanish top-flight for Athletic Bilbao, as they look to make their charge for a finish in the Champions League spots this term. The Spanish side come into this weekend after winning each of their last four matches in the competition, which is currently the best winning sequence of any side in the division. A victory could see them end the round as near as five points from the top of the standings.
Valencia will also be full of confidence coming into this weekend after winning each of their last three matches. That run of form has seen them rise to eighth in the league standings, and they could climb an additional place in the standings if they are able to record maximum points this weekend. But, they could drop down a spot if they suffer a loss at home.
Valencia currently boast a very impressive record in the league, having netted eight goals across their last three victories in the competition. But, they will be looking to make some history this week, as they go in search of a fourth straight win for the first time since April 2018.
Bilbao have been very hard to beat in the league in recent months after going ten without loss. They will also be looking to make some history on Sunday, as they will be looking to record five straight wins in the competition for the first time since March 2015.
Valencia’s record in this fixture would be a slight concern ahead of the showdown on Sunday, as they haven’t won in their last eight against Bilbao. However, five of the matches over that period have ended in draws. Bilbao have avoided defeat in their last four visits to the Mestalla in the league.
This should be a high-quality showdown between these Spanish sides on Sunday, and cases can be made for both to claim maximum points. However, Bilbao’s healthy advantage on the road against Valencia could be the key trend, and we could see them maintaining their winning run by landing maximum points.
