Athletic Bilbao vs Las Palmas Predictions

• Athletic Bilbao haven’t lost a La Liga home game since August
• Las Palmas have scored in each of their last five league matches.

Pio-Pio to score in defeat

Athletic Bilbao were felled by an injury time Federico Valverde at the Bernabeu on Sunday, but they should be able to bounce back in style against Las Palmas in this midweek round.

The relegation-threatened visitors have picked up a couple of impressive wins in recent weeks, but they have only won one of their last eight La Liga away days and face an Athletic Bilbao side that haven’t lost at home since August.

The Lehoiak are justified favourites, but they have conceded a goal in three of their last four at home and the improving Las Palmas have found the net in each of their last five games, opening the door for a home win and both teams to score.

Las Palmas lost 3-1 against Real Sociedad – another Basque side – earlier this month and Athletic Bilbao’s last home game was a 3-1 triumph over Rayo Vallecano, so that looks a solid correct score prediction.
