THE PREDICTION

It is back-to-back Basque derbies to kick off 2022 for Alaves. Alaves shared a 1-1 draw with Real Sociedad last weekend as their low-scoring and stubborn form continued. They sit in the bottom three and the relegation places ahead of this weekend’s round of fixtures and they now come up against an Athletic side that will be looking to take advantage of their local rivals’ poor campaign. The visitors, under the management of Marcelino, defeated Osasuna by three goals to one last weekend as they look to push into the top-half and challenge for European football. A low-scoring double chance bet in favour of the away team looks a good bet for this one.
