La Liga Betting Preview: Barcelona vs Athletic Club

Second-placed Barcelona take on Athletic Club at Camp Nou, with kick-off set for 10:15 on Saturday 22 November.

Barcelona -1.25 at -118 look a good bet on the Asian Handicap. The home team will land a nice return if they achieve a two goal winning margin or bigger. A one goal win would mean we get half the stake returned.

Barcelona have enjoyed five La Liga home victories on the spin. Their last win was a 4-2 road success at Estadio Balaídos against Celta Vigo. Hans-Dieter Flick's side had most of the ball recording 62% possession and nine shots on target, with Robert Lewandowski scoring a hat-trick and Lamine Yamal also among the goals.

Athletic Club secured a 1-0 home win over Real Oviedo at San Mamés in their previous game. Los Leones were 48% in the possession stakes and managed seven shots on goal, with Nico Williams scoring the winner in the 25th minute.

Head-to-Head Statistics

Barca have claimed back-to-back wins over Athletic. The most recent was a 3-0 away win at San Mamés after a 2-1 home victory at Estadio Olimpico Lluis Companys. The previous 10 H2H meetings have ended in six Barca victories, two draws and two Athletic wins.
