Athletic Bilbao vs Barcelona 12.03.2023

Barcelona will hope to continue their domestic momentum and keep their charge for another La Liga title on. Last weekend, the Blaugranas struggled to a 1-0 win over Valencia, to further widen the gap between them and their nearest challenger, Real Madrid.

Meanwhile the host have been suffering a dip in form with only four points from a possible fifteen in their last five La Liga outing. Ernesto Velverde will be desperate for a result, but it is hard to see where the inspiration to shock Barcelona will come from.

Just like Barcelona, the home team have also struggled for some composure in front of goal and this fixtures looks like it will be a low scoring one.

We do not expect a game that will be end-to-end with plenty of goals. Therefore, we reckon there will be less than four total goals scored in this match.
