It has been an excellent season for Athletic Bilbao to this point, and their confidence should be sky high coming into this round of matches after recently winning the Copa del Rey. However, Bilbao will still have domestic league targets that they will be looking to achieve between now and the end of the season, as they will be hoping to finish the campaign in the Champions League spots.

• Osasuna vs Valencia Prediction: La Liga Match on 15.04.2024

La Liga Preview

Bilbao have a very steady record in this fixture, winning two of the last three clashes between the teams. Meanwhile, they have suffered just one defeat in the last ten league meetings between the teams. Villarreal’s only win over that period was a 5-1 home success last season.
Bilbao come into this round sitting fifth in the standings, and they trail Atletico Madrid by just two points. Therefore, a victory this weekend could see them end the round back into the top-four. However, they will need to rediscover their consistency after winning just two games across their last five outings in the Spanish top-flight.
