Athletic Bilbao vs Rapid Prediction 29 September 2016

Tournament: Europa League
Location: San Mames Stadium
Match date: 29.09.2016 at 20:05

On September 29 2016 at 20:05 in the regular game of the Europa League group stage second round at the San Mames Stadium Athletic Bilbao play against Rapid.

In the previous season after 38 games played in the Spanish Primera Athletic gained 62 points, took the 5th place and made it directly to the group stage of the Europa League. In the new season of the national championship the Lions lost to Sporting and Barcelona and after that won four games in a raw. For today they are on the 5th lace of the La Liga with 12 points gained. In the first round game Athletic lost to the Italian Sassuolo conceding three goals and not scoring a single one.

 The vice champions of the Australian Bundesliga Rapid showed really reliable performance and stable results at the start of the new season. In the first 9 games of the national championship Rapid won 4 times, drew four times and lost once. Consequently, they have 16 points and the third place in the standings with 19:5 goal difference. In the first game of the Group F Rapid hosted Genk. The game was pretty equal from both sides, but the hosts looked better and showed great cooperation, which helped them win the game 3:2.

Athletic and Rapid have never met before. Considering the fact that Athletic show great results at home this season, we think that they are the favorites of the game. Moreover, the results of Rapid were various and not all of them were satisfying. We think that Athletic will win the forthcoming match and Athletic won’t have a chance to score.
