Athletic Bilbao

After the international break in November, Athletic played three games, beating Elfsborg 3:0 in the Europa League, Real Sociedad 1:0 at home, and Rayo 2:1 away in La Liga. The results have lifted the Lions into fourth place in La Liga, ahead of Villarreal. Atletico have 26 points, 8 behind leaders Barcelona. The Basques' home record is 5th in the league, with +4=3-1 and a goal difference 12:6.

Real Madrid

After the international break in November, Real Madrid played three official matches: a 2:0 away defeat to Liverpool in the Champions League and two straight wins in La Liga, 3:0 against Leganes and 2:0 against Getafe. Real Madrid is just one point behind Barcelona with a game in hand, but the Catalans play on Tuesday and have a four-point lead over the Creamers. Madrid's away record is fourth in the league, +3=3-0, with a goal difference of 10:4.

Expert Betting Tips

Real has not been as consistent this season as last, while Athletic is on a 9-match unbeaten run with 6 wins in that time. In addition, Real Bilbao has historically had a negative record, so the Basques are not Real's easiest opponents. We are expecting a hard-fought game in which we would not be surprised to see a draw, and our main bet is a double chance for the home side, which is unlikely to satisfy either side.
