Barcelona are coming with a squad devoid of any player taking part in the World cup (fifa rule) and containing a mix of first/b/c team players.
Eto'o is liable to play some part, as it appears he needs one goal to finish the season as La Liga top scorer. I say appear as there seems to be some doubt whether he actually has 25 or 26 goals, pretty sure he is tied with David Villa. Think Eto'o will be given the chance to win yet another award.
Bilbao sold out the stadium several days ago, they have named the strongest squad available (Yeste gone for surgery) and surely they would like to beat the national and european champions. They feel they owe the supporters a win for the poor performance this year in La Liga. There is also a little bad feeling from the reverse fixture, players got a little heated and Barce fans spent much of the game taunting the Basque club that they were going to "segunda" (relegation).
Still think Bilbao are the more motivated team and I am happy with the original selection, however, I am going to add a small bet on "overs" as Eto'o may get the goal he needs. The 3-2 scoreline is priced around 30 on betfair and is not a forlorn hope.
2 points over 2.5 goals 1.80 general
1/4 point Bilbao to win 3-2 30.0 betfair
Good Luck
