Further markets to consider
Beyond the main tip at the top of the page, two more selections stand out for this match-up:
👉 Our prediction is: Draw
This matchup between América Mineiro and Athletic Club has all the makings of a hard-fought stalemate, so our top tip for the match is to bet on the draw on the 1X2 market.
Neither side is particularly appealing to bet on to win given their uneven form of late. And we also see great value in the 2.82 odds for a draw, which is hard to pass up.
👉 Prediction: Athletic Club win or Draw
We have strong confidence in Athletic Club’s ability to leave with at least a point, making them a smart pick on the Double Chance market.
Athletic Club has consistently put in solid away performances, while América Mineiro’s form has been far from convincing. An outright win might be a big ask, but the added security in case of a draw makes this bet interesting.
