Athletic Bilbao to Win

Athletic Bilbao have had a challenging start to the campaign, but they have lost just two of six matches at home this term, alongside three wins and one draw. 

They reached the semi-finals of the Europa League last season and hit an injury crisis at a bad time before going out to Manchester United.

The Arsenal and Dortmund clashes were tricky opening encounters in the competition. Ernesto Valverde's side should see this game as a must-win and cut loose to justify their short odds price.

Over 2.5 Goals

Qarabag may have been defensively vulnerable, conceding two early goals, but they have also shown their attacking quality, including already scoring five goals in their first two league phase fixtures. 

Athletic Bilbao have also seen their fair share of goals in the league phase so far, as they have conceded six in their first two matches, although they have managed only one goal. 

Athletic are unsustainably underperforming their attacking performance data in La Liga, a regression to the mean should see them contribute at least two goals towards this line.

📈 Athletic Bilbao v Qarabag Form & Stats

Wednesday’s hosts initially started the season with three straight victories in La Liga, but they have failed to maintain that momentum in their subsequent outings, managing only one win and two draws in their last eight fixtures. 

That lacklustre run has included back-to-back defeats in the Champions League, leaving them as one of only four teams yet to claim a point in the league phase - something Ernesto Valverde will be desperate to change against Qarabag. 

As for Qarabag, the visitors head into this clash in sensational form, having recorded seven wins and one draw in their last eight games, including victories in each of their first two Champions League fixtures. 

Their 3-2 triumph over Benfica on matchday one marked their first-ever win in the competition, and after following that up with a 2-0 home victory against Copenhagen, Gurban Gurbanov’s side will be full of optimism going into Wednesday’s clash.

While they face the tough test of travelling to the San Mames Stadium, Qarabag will draw confidence from their flawless record in this competition on the road, recording four wins from four away Champions League fixtures across the qualifiers and league phase.
