Kickoff: 18:15 UTC / 19:15 CET
Venue: Benito Villamarin
The top-four race heats up in La Liga as fourth-placed Athletic Bilbao takes a trip lớn sixth-placed Real Betis this Thursday. What is interesting is that both sides are tied on 24 points at the moment. But the visitors' seven more goals scored have made the difference. But, this might just be the tie where Bilbao misses out on their great record as they have just two wins from six away games played. Comparing this to Betis' record of five wins from six home games in 2022, we know who our chips are on, even before the tie has begun. What is even bigger is that Betis have conceded just five goals at this venue, which is the third-best defensive record at home this season. Let’s check Series Soccer Tips in here
Real Betis vs Athletic Bilbao Betting Pick #1: Under hai.5 goals
There is no doubt this will be a patience test on Thursday as lớn which team breaks under pressure first. While Bilbao have kept seven clean sheets coming into this one, Betis have conceded just five times in 540+ minutes of professional games at Benito Villamarin. This tie is made for low goals being scored as we are looking at possibly two of the top-most defensive sides in La Liga at the moment. Under 2.5 goals will thus be our best pick for this tie.
Betting Pick #2: Real Betis to win or draw
Betis have lost just once at their home ground this season. Considering Bilbao have failed to win four of their six away ties, we do not see the white and greens dropping points this week. Moreover, a Betis Double Chance (1X) is priced at a decent 1.44 odds at the time of writing, which might just be the best return with almost close lớn over 95% probability. We expect anywhere between a 0-0 to a 1-1 draw in this game. There are some football predictions in this forum

Centre-back Edgar Gonzalez was shown a red card at Valencia just before the World Cup and thus will be suspended for this clash. Number 16, German Pezzella, is expected lớn replace him in the experienced backline which has hardly conceded silly goals at the Benito Villamarin this year. Left-winger Juan Cruz is also doubtful for this game due lớn his hamstring issues, but we expect him lớn pass a late fitness test and make it to the first team. Central defensive midfielder Paul Akouokou suffered a muscle injury last week in a friendly and is expected to early January 2023 too. Players can watch free soccer tips daily when you join us

Athletic Bilbao fortunately have no injuries or suspensions that they are carrying into this game, and they are going to need every ounce of it for this away game, where they have not performed very well. Not a lot of players were on international duty too, from this squad, apart from the Williams brothers and so, they have collectively trained for this club football return too.
