Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson expects goals at San Mames, with Elche leaking at will.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Over 3.5 goals7/4Elche have been a defensive disaster, shipping a division-worst 12 goals in four games and losing three of them. Athletic are far from watertight themselves but will fancy filling their boots at San Mames against that leaky backline. With the visitors conceding at three a game and the hosts strong favourites to attack in numbers, four or more goals looks a real possibility at a healthy 7/4.
Nico Williams to be first goalscorer11/2Williams is Athletic’s spark from the left and a constant threat cutting inside at San Mames. Against an Elche defence that has been torn open week after week, shipping 12 already, 11/2 about him breaking the deadlock is a tasty price for one of the hosts’ main men in a game they should dominate.

How Athletic Club go into the game

Athletic Club thrashed Atletico Madrid 3-0 last time out, a superb result. San Mames is rocking and expects more.

Dangerous and well-drilled, Athletic are in fine form and formidable at home. Three points is the aim.

How Elche go into the game

Elche were beaten 3-2 by Real Sociedad last time out, a narrow defeat. They travel to Bilbao needing to tighten up.

Spirited on their return but leaky, Elche face a huge test at San Mames. A point would be a fine result.
