Athletic Bilbao vs Spartak Moscow Prediction

Under2.5 goals
92% confidence

Why we picked this for Athletic Bilbao vs Spartak Moscow

Our pick for Athletic Bilbao vs Spartak Moscow in Europa League is Under 2.5 goals, with 92% confidence. Recent form: 1 of Athletic Bilbao's last 5 games went over 2.5 goals (2.0 goals per game in total), against 4 of 5 for Spartak Moscow (3.8 per game). Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 5 of the 10 recent games went under 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Under 2.5.

The head-to-head points the other way: only 0 of their last 1 meetings finished under 2.5 goals. Older meetings say less about how these teams play now, so recent form counts for more in our numbers. At 92%, most of the recent evidence lands on this side of the line, which makes it one of our stronger calls. Final score: 1-2. The pick lost.
