With a convincing triumph against Cadiz on the away field, Bilbao confirmed that it will have a notable role in the Spanish championship this season as well. The only team besides Real and Barcelona that has never left the elite ranks is now in 5th place, just behind the positions that lead to the Champions League.

Year after year, Espanyol never starts the season well. Something similar is happening now as the team from Barcelona won only 1 point in the first 3 rounds. However, one of the two defeats happened against Real Madrid and it is still not a competent club to show the true quality of Espanyol in comparison to the teams from the middle of the table.

Athletic Bilbao vs Espanyol pick: Bilbao to win

Bilbao is one of those clubs that plays much better at home and knows how to take advantage of scoring chances even when there aren't many of them. The last two times they beat Espanyol in this stadium and the overall tradition is very good. Espanyol has not won away from home since January of this year. The style of play that Bilbao forces have never suited them, so we expect a defensive formation that will not bring anything good in this type of match. The extra recommendation is for Bilbao to win with AH -1

Athletic Bilbao vs Espanyol
Espanyol have not won in their last 13 away games
Bilbao have not lost in their last 9 home matches
Bilbao won the last 2 times Espanyol in this stadium with 5 goals scored

毕尔巴鄂在客场对加的斯的比赛中取得了令人信服的胜利，这证明了他们在本赛季的西甲联赛中也将扮演重要的角色。除了皇马和巴萨，唯一一支从未离开过精英行列的球队现在排在第5位，仅落后于通往欧冠的位置。

年复一年，西班牙人从来没有一个好的赛季开始。类似的事情正在发生，来自巴塞罗那的球队在前3轮只获得1分。然而，两场失利中的一场发生在对皇家马德里的比赛中，与积分榜中游的球队相比，西班牙人仍然不是一支真正有实力的俱乐部。

毕尔巴鄂竞技vs西班牙人:毕尔巴鄂获胜

毕尔巴鄂是那些在主场踢得更好的俱乐部之一，他们知道如何利用进球机会，即使进球机会并不多。前两次他们在这个球场击败西班牙人，整体的传统是非常好的。西班牙人自从今年一月以来就没有在客场赢过球。毕尔巴鄂队的打法从来都不适合他们，所以我们希望防守阵型在这种比赛中不会带来任何好处。额外的建议是毕尔巴鄂以AH -1获胜

毕尔巴鄂竞技vs西班牙人
西班牙人在过去的13场客场比赛中没有取得胜利
毕尔巴鄂最近9场主场比赛没有输过
毕尔巴鄂在这个球场以5球的成绩赢得了西班牙人的2次胜利
