Athletic Bilbao!!! (part 2)

So it looks like every time Athletic Bilbao is in need of points and Racing Santander not, then Athletic always leaves El Sardinero with the three points.

So the critical question is, does Athletic need the points this year?
Well, since there are in the drop zone, the answer is obvious...
Is Racing in need of points? Well, theoretically they have chances in finishing in one of the spots that lead to the UEFA competition, but from various interviews that Racing players gave the past week I got the impression that they are happy they managed to avoid relegation battle this year. Most of them just mention that they need 3 more points to guarantee them a place in the Primera division next year.

So I believe Athletic Bilbao will win on Sunday

The odds for Athletic started around 4.00 in the beginning of the week but then they dropped to around 3.60.

As we speak:
Betfair: 3.80
WillHill: 3.60
Sportingbet: 3.50
Gamebookers: 3.50
Eurobet: 3.70
10bet: 3.40
Ladbrokes: 3.75


I have placed my bet (my biggest bet of the year) on Monday and Tuesday. The odds I got were 4.00 and 3.75.

Let’s hope the tradition will continue!

Vamos Athletic!!!!!
