With the above facts in mind, the upcoming basketball game between Bilbao Basket and Real Madrid on October 13, 2024, at 12:30 PM at Bilbao Arena is set to be a highly anticipated and fiercely fought match.
With 28 of the 39 games played between the two clubs, Real Madrid has historically dominated the head-to-head record. However, with a 1-1 record so far this season and a great home record of 90 points scored and 72 points allowed on average, Bilbao Basket has shown promising signs in their recent games. This could be a turning point for them. Conversely, Real Madrid starts the season with a mixed record: 1-1 with an away average of 85 points scored and 86 points given up.
Given Real Madrid’s previous supremacy, the bookies’ 1.29 odds for a win against 4.25 for Bilbao Basket appear reasonable. However, the close average total match points of 160.56 and the potential for a high-scoring encounter suggest that it could be a strategic move to bet on a total score above 167.5 points.
