Athletic Club vs Real Madrid Moneyline Prediction
- Moneyline Pick: Draw
- Odds: +295 (Tonybet)
Betting odds will side with Real Madrid due to their stature, yet it’ll be a more difficult match. San Mamés is famously one of the most difficult venues in La Liga, a combination of the stadium’s location and the passionate Basque fanbase. Last year, only a handful of clubs, including league winners Barcelona and several others, managed to leave with all three points.
While Athletic Club’s record is far from inspiring, the venue forces opponents to break the team’s block down, which is far from easy. As such, we suggest a 1-1 tie, where both teams will only score through individual brilliance.
Athletic Club vs Real Madrid Player Prop
- Prop Bet: Nico Williams to score
- Odds: +420 (Tonybet)
Nico Williams, and to a wider extent, Athletic Club have struggled to score throughout the season. Yet there’s a general rule: against Real Madrid, they tend to have a positive record. With Williams finding the net against Levante, chances are that he’ll be confident enough to also get on the scoresheet in the upcoming clash.
Athletic Club vs Real Madrid Same Game Parlay
- SGP: Draw + Nico Williams to score + under 3.5 goals
- Odds: TBC (Tonybet)
Betting odds will side with Real Madrid, but an in-form Nico Williams is never good news for opposing defenders. San Mamés always rises to the occasion, meaning that opponents must be precise in their movements. Even with injuries, Athletic Club are still dangerous on the break. However, with both teams struggling to field coherent tactics due to a number of factors, few goals are expected.

Athletic Club Team News
Athletic Club’s struggles continue, with a marked consistency throughout the past five weeks. The Basques defeated Levante 2-0 with ease, which led to the termination of their coach’s contract.
Nico Williams netted the second goal, while Robert Navarro opened the scoring in the first minute. The latter left the pitch injured, while Williams led the squad as expected. Despite that, Athletic Club could’ve scored more goals but failed to do so, as their striker issues persist. For now, Gorka Guruzeta is expected to start, even if his performances have been far from convincing.

On the other hand, their 0-0 draw against Prague in the Champions League has almost certainly ended the club’s European dream, as qualifying from the group stage is a tough ask now. With the team currently sitting eighth in La Liga, the Champions League is far from a priority.
Aymeric Laporte, Iñaki Williams, Robert Navarro, Unai Eguíluz, Beñat Prados, and Maroan Sannadi will be sidelined through injuries. Oihan Sancet will serve his suspension.
Real Madrid Team News
Real Madrid are approaching a crisis. Though reports assured Xabi Alonso is still backed by club president Florentino Pérez, this has historically been the time of sackings. The criticisms aren’t completely unfounded.
Los Blancos unexpectedly dropped points against Girona (1-1), with their only goal coming from a penalty, converted by Kylian Mbappé. Girona are one of the weakest sides defensively and remain in the relegation zone (18th place). The match marks Madrid’s third back-to-back draw in La Liga, all three coming against bottom-league teams.

Their 4-3 victory over Olympiakos was also a disappointing game, where Kylian Mbappé’s four-goal performance saved the club from further criticism. Their only “convincing” performance dates back to a month ago, when they defeated Valencia 4-0. Some players, like Vinicius Jr, are already rumoured to seek a move due to personal disagreements with coach Xabi Alonso.
David Alaba, Raul Asencio, Dani Carvajal, and Dean Huijsen will be sidelined through injuries.
