Football Predictions for Atletico Madrid vs Athletic Bilbao Tonight

Atletico Madrid play Athletic Bilbao in the Copa Del Rey tonight and we have found two football betting tips for the match being shown live on Sky Sports.

This first leg takes place in Madrid where the home side will want to give themselves an advantage ahead of the return in Bilbao but they have drawn three of their last four matches and people are starting to question whether they can handle the pressure of being realistic La Liga title contenders.

Atletico Madrid had the chance to go top of the La Liga table at the weekend but were held to a 1-1 draw at home to Sevilla, dropping two more crucial points.

Athletic Bilbao have scored 12 goals in their last three matches and they have won all three games so despite the odds of 2/5 for Atletico Madrid to win, that price is far too short to put up as a football prediction so we need to look elsewhere and that brings us onto Diego Costa. The Spaniard has scored 23 goals in 25 matches this season and will be pivotal to Atletico’s pursuit of silverware this season.

He has the chance to end a run of five matches without a goal tonight and he is the subject of our first football betting tip on the match where we are backing Diego Costa to score in an Atletico Madrid win at Evens with William Hill.

Bilbao have failed to score in four of their last five away matches and Atletico have only conceded one in their last three at home so for a correct score football tip on the match tonight we are looking at a 2-0 Atletico Madrid win at odds of 13/2 with Winner.

There is also reason to bet on a 1-0 win for Atletico Madrid against Athletic Bilbao but we are predicting that the Atletico front-line and support from the likes of Turan and Koko can ensure they get a cushion by a couple of goals ahead of the second leg of the tie.
