Latest football match prediction: Ludogorets vs Athletic Bilbao
Ludogorets had a disappointing start to the Europa League group stage, earning only one point from their first three matches. The Bulgarian team began the group stage with a 0-2 home defeat against Slavia Prague, followed by a 0-0 draw with Viktoria Plzen away in the Czech Republic in their second match.
However, in their most recent away game in Europe, Ludogorets failed to earn any points, losing 0-2 to Belgian side Anderlecht, conceding two goals in the second half.
Currently, the team is two points behind the top 24 and is one of only two clubs yet to score in the Europa League group stage this season. Despite this, in the Bulgarian league, Ludogorets has maintained an impressive form with 11 wins in 12 matches and a nine-point lead over the team behind them. The team is preparing for their fourth consecutive home game in all competitions, following three impressive victories with a combined score of 12-0, and they hope that home advantage will help them secure a crucial win.
In contrast, Athletic Bilbao have had an impressive start in the Europa League, securing two wins and one draw in their three matches. They drew 1-1 with Roma at the Stadio Olimpico thanks to a late equalizer from Aitor Paredes, and then beat AZ Alkmaar 2-0 at home.
Continuing their good form, they secured a 1-0 victory against Slavia Prague, with Nico Williams scoring the winning goal. Thanks to this unbeaten run, Ernesto Valverde's team is now among the top eight, qualifying for the round of 16, although they are only ahead of the teams below them on goal difference.
However, Athletic are experiencing a bit of disappointment after two consecutive draws in La Liga against Mallorca and Real Betis, leaving them with only one win in their last five domestic league matches. The goalless draw against Mallorca also extended Athletic's winless away run to three matches across all competitions. They are still searching for their first away win since their 2-0 victory over Leganes on September 19th.
