Bet on Bilbao vs BarcelonaWill Blaugrana Secure Spot in Super Cup Final?
Athletic Bilbao secured their Super Cup spot after winning the Copa del Rey last term. As for Barca, they finished runners-up to rivals Real Madrid in La Liga.
Bilbao are in great form, unbeaten in all competitions since October. Last time out, Ernesto Valverde’s troops edged past UD Logrones on penalties in the cup. Can they extend their undefeated run in midweek?
After ending 2024 with back-to-back defeats to Leganes and Atletico Madrid, Barca returned to winning ways in emphatic style last weekend. Goals from Robert Lewandowski (2), Eric Garcia, and Pablo Torre gave Blaugrana a 4-0 victory at Barbastro in the Copa del Rey.
Only two points separate the pair in La Liga right now, and Tuesday’s Spanish Super clash could go either way. Barcelona are the favourites, but Bilbao will be formidable opponents in Saudi Arabia.
