Match analysis
Athletic Club host Alaves on 19 September on two days' rest, a day shorter than Alaves' turnaround, and Superior's model still projects a 1-0 home win. Athletic have kept two clean sheets in their last five matches, the defensive form the projection is built on despite the shorter recovery time.
Athletic have kept two clean sheets despite the quick turnaround
Athletic have won two of their last five without conceding, 3-0 and 2-0, alongside a draw and two defeats, showing their defence holds up even in matches sandwiched close together. Alaves have been more inconsistent, losing their first two of the last five before a 5-2 win turned their form around, and arrive with one extra day to recover.
Alaves' 5-2 win shows their attack can punish a tired side
Alaves scored five goals in one of their last five matches, and Athletic's own recent history includes a 1-3 and a 0-2 defeat, proof their defence is not settled. Two days' rest against a side that has found five goals in an afternoon recently is the scenario that turns this from a clean home win into something Alaves can take a share of.
