Football Bet of the Day: Goals in Girona

Athletic Bilbao fans should have something to cheer in Girona tonight

Girona host Athletic Bilbao in La Liga tonight and Tobias Gourlay's expecting to be entertained

  • Both teams have scored in 5/6 Girona home games
  • Favourites Athletic have conceded on 4/5 road trips

Girona v Athletic Bilbao
Friday 20:00

In Spain last night, Sporting Gijon and Albacete drew 2-2 in a topsy turvy game that delivered a nice odds-against winner for us.

We're sticking in Spain and stepping up a level for the Friday-night game in La Liga. Struggling Girona host sixth-placed Athletic Bilbao and we fancy both teams to get on the score-sheet.

Promoted Girona are yet to keep a clean sheet in six Liga appearances at Estadi Montilivi this season (W2-D2-L2). At the other end, though, Michel's men have scored themselves in 5/6, with the same fraction delivering BTTS.

Ernesto Valverde's Athletic are W2-D2-L1 on the road this term. Last time out they were thrashed 4-0 by Barcelona - but that was the first away game in which they hadn't scored. They're favourites to win this one, despite conceding on 4/5 road trips so far. We'll back them to concede again tonight against a surprisingly perky Girona forward line and help deliver BTTS.
