  /  autty

The 2022-23 edition of La Liga is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Espanyol take on an impressive Athletic Bilbao outfit in an important match at the San Mames on Sunday.

Athletic Bilbao vs Espanyol Preview

Espanyol are currently in 16th place in the La Liga standings and are yet to hit their stride this year. The Catalan outfit suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Real Madrid last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.

Athletic Bilbao, on the other hand, are in fourth place in the league table at the moment and have been impressive so far this season. The Basque giants thrashed Cadiz by a 4-0 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.

Athletic Bilbao vs Espanyol Prediction

Athletic Bilbao have been impressive so far this season and will be intent on securing their place in Europe in the coming months. With Inaki Williams unavailable, the likes of Alex Berenguer and Neco Williams will need to step up and shoulder the goalscoring burden.

Espanyol have been in poor form so far but did give Real Madrid a run for their money last week. Athletic Bilbao are the better team, however, and should be able to win this game.
