Saturday afternoon at San Mamés brings a Basque derby to La Liga, with Athletic Club installed as strong favourites at 1.62 (implied ~62%) against an Alaves side sitting five places above them in the table. Kickoff is 15:15 UK time, and the market sees a clear home lean despite that standings gap. The market makes Athletic Club strong favourites at 1.62 (implied ~62%), and there's logic behind it — they're unbeaten in their last three, including a 3-0 thumping of Atletico Madrid and a 2-0 win at Celta Vigo, while Alaves have lost their last two on the bounce.
