On June 4, the match of the last 38th round of the Spanish La Liga will take place, in which Real Madrid will play at home with Athletic Bilbao. The forecast for this duel is given by the famous commentator, journalist and blogger Vasily Utkin.
By the last round, Real Madrid came in second place in the standings. There is a risk of losing him in case of a misfire in this meeting, since the gap from Atletico is only 1 point. In the last five rounds, the "cream" scored 9 points. After losing to Valencia (0:1), in the last two rounds they defeated Rayo Vallecano and Sevilla with the same score 2:1. The victories were achieved thanks to the excellent form of Rodrigo, who scored 3 goals out of four. Carlo Ancelotti's team did not remain without a trophy, having beaten Osasuna in the final of the Spanish Cup a month ago (2:1), and also thanks to Rodrigo's double. In the semi-finals of the Champions League, she defeated Manchester City (0:4).
Athletic fails the end of the championship, having suffered 4 defeats in the last five rounds at once. Only Celta managed to win (2:1). After that success, there were dry defeats from Osasuna (0:2) and Elche (0:1). Despite such poor results, the team from Bilbao can still get into the Conference League, currently occupying 8th place in the standings, losing to the higher Osasuna only by additional indicators. The main problem of the Basques at the moment is a weak game in attack.
Real Madrid have won each of the last six head-to-head matches with Athletic, although most of these victories were just one goal. Vasily Utkin believes that Madrid have already fully recovered after their relegation from the Champions League, so they will be able to beat Athletic, which is in crisis, in order to finish the season on a positive note.
