Athletic Club vs Ferroviaria tips and predictions

Ferroviaria to weather the storm; parity beckons

This isn't a confident view but the short price for Athletic Club makes them a terrible bet. Ferroviaria don't look likely to get the win but they might make the hosts stutter.

These sides have both shown form in front of goal in recent outings. Athletic Club have averaged 2.2 goals in their last 5 starts which could be significant ahead of this one. Ferroviaria have averaged 2.2 goals in their last 5 away campaigns.

In previous matches in this head-to-head one of the last 3 has ended in a draw.

The sportsbooks think that only one of these sides will present a threat on goal due to the quality of Athletic Club. But if you are looking at the Both Teams To Score market, the Yes option will be something to cheer on until the final whistle. Also, if you're interested in the goal line, it's Over 3.5 Goals picked as the best play given the prices available there.

Athletic Club have drawn 5 of their last 11 matches, most recently when they drew 0-0 with Ypiranga FC at home earlier this month. Ferroviaria have drawn 10 of their last 19 away games. It isn't a very exciting prediction and it feels like a match to be on one's guard about and so the draw warrants consideration. A deadlock is on the cards after a game that could produce a goal-fest.
