The Athletic Bilbao vs Alaves prediction for September 19, 2026, points towards a home victory at San Mamรฉs Stadium. This Primera clash kicks off at 14:15, with Athletic Bilbao holding a 52% win probability based on odds, form, and home advantage.
Athletic Bilbao's recent form is mixed, with two wins, two losses, and a draw in their last five matches (D, W, W, L, L). At home, they drew 1-1 with Elche and beat Atletico Madrid 3-0, but also suffered a 1-3 defeat to Sevilla. Alaves have an identical pattern in their last five (L, L, W, W, D). Their away form is a concern, with back-to-back losses at Racing Santander (1-2) and Valencia (0-1), though they did win 1-0 at Villarreal earlier in the season.
The head-to-head record is remarkably balanced: 10 Athletic Bilbao wins, 10 draws, and 9 Alaves wins in their history. The last five meetings show Alaves with a slight edge, winning two (including a 1-0 at San Mamรฉs in September 2025), Athletic Bilbao winning two, and one draw. The most recent encounter saw Athletic Bilbao win 4-2 away in May 2026.
Alaves sit 6th in the Primera table with 10 points from 6 games (3 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses). Athletic Bilbao, listed as Athletic Club in the standings, are 9th with 7 points from 5 games (2 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses). Alaves have a strong home record (2nd in the home table) but are unranked in the top 8 away. Athletic Bilbao are 8th in the away table with 3 points from 2 games.
Based on the available odds and team performance data, the win probabilities are calculated as follows: Athletic Bilbao has a 52% chance of winning, the draw is at 29%, and Alaves has a 19% chance. This calculation uses the inverse of the best available odds (1.69 for home, 2.32 for draw, 5.80 for away), normalized to remove the bookmaker margin, and adjusted for Athletic Bilbao's home advantage and Alaves' poor away form. Athletic Bilbao are the clear favorites to win.
Bookmakers see Athletic Bilbao as the favorite, with the best home win odds at 1.69. The draw is priced around 2.32, and an Alaves away win is as high as 5.80. Based on the stats, the most likely outcome is an Athletic Bilbao victory. Alaves' recent away defeats and Athletic Bilbao's strong home performance against Atletico Madrid support this prediction.
