Bilbao vs. Arsenal Odds
Game Preview
Bilbao is in a bad place right now. They lost two straight games with a minimal result of 0-1, first to Osasuna and then to Alaves. And to make it even worse, both were at San Mames, where they usually handle teams like these without problems.
After three wins in a row, this came as a huge setback for the Spaniards, who now have to face the in-form Arsenal, filled with Spanish players who know Bilbao extremely well.
Arsenal looks good, and that’s a fact. The recent 3-0 win over Forest is proof of that, with the Gunners netting all three hits in the second 45 minutes.
Mikel Arteta created a robust and strong defense, which already has three clean sheets in the opening 4 Premier League games. The sole goal allowed was Szoboszlai’s free kick against Liverpool in a match that saw Saliba get injured earlier.
Bilbao vs. Arsenal Head to Head
These teams met at the Emirates Cup one month ago, and Arsenal won 3-0. Gyokeres, Saka and Havertz scored for the home team.
Bilbao vs. Arsenal Predictions
The first thing that crosses our mind about this game is the routine win Arsenal posted over Bilbao recently. Plus, Bilbao couldn’t score in the previous 180 minutes, while Arsenal rarely concedes. After writing all this, the final pick here is Arsenal to win.
