Football – Spain – La Liga Betting Tips
Monday night also brings us action from the Spanish top flight as mid-table Levante take on relegation threatened Athletic Bilbao as the betting tips continue at the Estadio Ciudad de Valencia.
Levante have struggled for consistency throughout this La Liga campaign as they sit in 11th place although they come into this encounter having suffered just one defeat from their last seven matches overall, which was a heavy 3-1 loss at home to Real Sociedad, but recent wins against Real Madrid (away) and a 2-0 home win over Leganes along with draws with Villarreal and Huesca have steadied the ship.
Results at home have been mixed for the hosts though as they’ve picked up wins against Deportivo Alaves and Leganes, but have also slipped to defeats to Sevilla and Real Sociedad amidst an overall record of 2-1-3 10/14.
Forward Marti (7 goals) and midfielder Morales (4 goals) have been the main goalscorers for the hosts this season.
Athletic Bilbao find themselves in the bottom three of La Liga after making a slow and sluggish start to their campaign which has seen them register just the one league win this term. That win came in a 2-1 home win over Leganes but have since stumbled to 12 matches without a win thereafter.
It’s worth mentioning though, that Athletic Bilbao have been involved in no fewer than 8 stalemates within this 12-match sequence, while their away record is also littered with draws amidst a record of 0-4-2 7/9.
Athletic Bilbao have suffered recent back-to-back defeats on the road as well with losses at 6th placed Espanyol and 3rd placed Atletico Madrid, but they’ll be fairly confident they can avoid a third loss on the trot at Levante on Monday night. Forwards Williams and Muniain (4 goals apiece) are the visitors’ leading scorers.
