Athletic Bilbao achieved a convincing 4-1 victory at home against Espanyol over the weekend. In the Europa League, they are also doing well so far, with the big goal being the final, which will be held at "San Mames". So far in the tournament, Athletic achieved a 2-0 home victory over AZ Alkmaar, as well as a 1-1 draw in their visit to Roma. Athletic has been a tough host and has only suffered one loss at home in the last 14 months - 0-1 against Atletico Madrid.
Slavia Prague demonstrates good formSlavia Prague has eight wins and one draw in their last nine matches in all competitions. The draw was in the Europa League after a 1-1 at home against Ajax. They won their only away match so far 2-0 against Ludogorets. Since the beginning of the season, Slavia has played 17 matches and suffered only one loss, which was 0-2 as a guest against Lille in the Champions League qualifiers.
Prediction: under 3.5 goals, HT 1:0Athletic is a tough host and most likely will not lose this match, but Slavia shows that they are also not easy to beat and seem to be in good form. However, the goals may not be too many, and I would even try with a modest precise result of 1:0 here.
