LiontipsValencia vs Athletic. Prediction and Betting Tips for La Liga
Command Analysis
Valencia goes through a tough season and fans are welcoming Voro for another spell as interim head coach. However, his first match in that role ended in a defeat. After 20 matches of the current season the Oranges have five victories and five draws, delivering 20 points and a 17th position in the standings.
Team scored more goals than any other team from the bottom half of La Liga. The Bats earned only one point from five latest matches, they drew to Almeria (2:2).
Correia, Domenech and Nico will miss the upcoming game.
Inaki Williams might miss another game, but his absence in the previous match didn't prevent Athletic from beating Cadiz (4:1). Before that, the Lions advanced into the next round of Copa del Rey, where they are always among the favourites. But things are not so great for the Basques in La Liga.
After 20 matches Ernesto Valverde's men have eight victories and five draws, delivering 29 points and an 8th position in the standings. Team scored 29 goals so far.
Williams, Martinez and Berchiche will miss the upcoming game.

Tip and bets
We are expecting a close contest here, but hosts are more likely to win the game. They were unfortunate in some of their recent matches, but now they should be able to finally end the losing streak.
Our prediction - Valencia to win
Athletic conceded many goals on away matches in the current season, so the Bats will probably have many goal opportunities today. Teams managed to score four goals in the previous head-to-head match.
Our second bet is on total over 2,5 goals
