SPAIN .... COPA DEL REY


ATHLETIC BILBAO - RACING SANTANDER

I like Bilbao here, the visitors are looking to hold onto a 2-0 lead from the first leg and will no doubt be happy to sit back and try to contain their hosts. They have only one away win, at struggling Deportivo, in 7 starts and would doubtlesssettle for a narrow loss right now.

Athletic produced 17 attempts on goal in the 1-1 draw with Barcelona on sunday evening and only the two big Madrid clubs have won at the San Mames this season, that's 13 home games. They are motivated to give this a real go, have named their strongest available 16, basically the same as faced Barce and given that Racing's ambitions should be limited, this quote looks pretty good.

Santander have won only once in 7 visits here.

6 points Bilbao -1/4 ball 1.93 asian line.

Good Luck.
