Athletic Club will be looking to cement their place in the top four of the Spanish top flight this weekend when they face Sevilla away from home.
Sevilla had to fight to stay in La Liga last season, but they have improved massively this term. Los Nervionenses sit in the top half of the table after picking up 36 points and could move into the top seven with a win over Bilbao this weekend. García Pimienta's side go into Sunday's clash on the back of a four-match unbeaten run, with two wins and also kept as many clean sheets.
Athletic Club meanwhile booked their place in the Europa League quarter-finals with a 3:1 win over Roma in midweek after losing the first leg by one goal. The Lions have been inconsistent in the league this season, perhaps best explained by the fact that they boast just one win from their last four La Liga games.
Sevilla vs Athletic Club Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
Apart from the defeats to Real Madrid and Barcelona, in which Sevilla conceded a total of eight goals, Xavier García's men have been pretty solid defensively. Los Nervionenses conceded under one goal in all but one of their last nine La Liga games, with each of their last three games ending with two or fewer goals.
Athletic Club have also been solid at the back in recent weeks. The visitors have conceded under one goal in each of their last five league games and bets on under 2.5 won in three of those outings.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Sevilla team news
Sevilla came away from last weekend's win over Real Sociedad with no injury problems, so it won't be a surprise if head coach García Pimienta sticks with the same XI.
Tanguy Nianzou, Akor Adams (both hamstrings) and Nemanja Gudelj (dead leg) are all out through injury, but the hosts have no suspensions.
