Athletic Bilbao raised their form at the right time, and the team is coming into this match after two consecutive triumphs, including a surprising 2-0 victory over the former champion - Atletico Madrid, last time. Not only is Marcelino's team well on its way to improving last season's 10th position, but the team has an ideal opportunity to secure European football, as they are only one point behind Villarreal. On the other hand, Valencia were totally outplayed by Levante last weekend, and coach Pepe Bordalás can be satisfied at the very least because his team remained undefeated, playing a 1-1 draw. The Bats have struggled with form in recent weeks, and the team is without a win in the previous six competitive games, so the coach is aware that his team is far from European football.
Athletic Bilbao vs Valencia Betting Tips
It will be the fourth meeting of these teams in the season, and it should be borne in mind that each ended with a low scoring, including a 1-1 draw at the Estadio de Mestalla in the first LaLiga meeting. The Lions last triumphed over Valencia in 2016 in front of the home fans, but given their strong home record lately, it seems that Athletic Bilbao has an ideal opportunity to put an end to this series of results. Three weeks ago, Valencia had an ideal opportunity to win the trophy in the Copa del Rey, but unfortunately, despite great efforts, Pepe Bordalás's team lost to Real Betis in the final, after a penalty. With huge attacking potential, Valencia certainly has the potential to find a net this weekend, but not to avoid defeat by Athletic Bilbao, which is fiercely fighting for European football.
CS Prediction: 2-1

Meanwhile, key player José Gayà will miss the next two games for Valencia, as the left-back has earned a direct red card against Levante last weekend.
