Last weekend, Athletic Bilbao won their 25th trophy in the Spanish cup. Still, Athletic's season is far from over, as they are still fighting for the Champions League spot. Currently, Ernesto Valverde's team is only two points behind fourth-placed Atletico Madrid. Athletic Bilbao are in good form, with only one loss in the last six matches. A title in Copa del Rey will certainly give them another boost of confidence ahead of the game against Villarreal.
Villarreal didn't have a good season like most in the previous decade. Still, after a shaky start, they can be more than satisfied with a solid mid-table position. Villarreal improved in the last two months as they lost only two of the last 13 matches in all competitions. In the previous game, Villarreal lost 2-1 at home against Atletico Madrid. The home side was close to avoiding defeat in that one, but Atletico Madrid's Saul Niguez found the net late in the second half, so the home side stayed empty-handed.
Athletic Bilbao vs Villarreal pick: Villarreal to cover AH+1 spread
Athletic Bilbao had some problems lately, as they scored only one goal in the last two matches. On the other hand, Villarreal scored eight goals in the previous four games. Villarreal are playing well lately, so they will keep the game against Athletic Bilbao close on Sunday afternoon.
