Real Madrid vs. Athletic Bilbao

Real Madrid can play any style, in first place in the Spanish La Liga. The defense has allowed 15 goals in 14 matches, the sixth-best in the league. For this game, the offense will be without midfielder Dani Ceballos and attacking midfielder Rodrygo Silva de Goes. Eighth-ranked Athletic Bilbao heads out on the road with a defensive approach scoring 13 goals while allowing 10. That offense is tied-for fourth-worst, while the defense is No. 1 in goals surrendered in the 20-team league. 18 of their last 24 matches have sailed UNDER 2.5 goals, including eight straight on the road. These teams played a 1-0 game back in May and this shapes up as another all-out defensive duel. Take Real Madrid/Athletic Bilbao UNDER the total as a Max Play.
