If you’re backing this one, here’s the no-bull take.
Athletic Bilbao (Eder) at 1.38 to win feels tight given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the Valhalla Cup (2x4 min.) this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re riding luck — stats nerds would avoid.
Villarreal (Spike)’s 4.4 odds tempts, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his cold streak.
The wise guys’ll likely poke at the Draw 5.3 — these derbies often play out tight, and nerves can kill attacking flow.
