SlipsTips takes a look at the Bet Builder market ahead of Sevilla's showdown with Athletic Bilbao in La Liga on Monday.
Sevilla vs Athletic Bilbao (Monday, 20:00)
Sevilla will be looking to stay in the hunt for the La Liga title when they play host to Athletic Bilbao on Monday night.
Julen Lopetegui's side are only six points behind leaders Atletico Madrid, having produced a five-game winning streak in the Spanish top-flight.
A sixth La Liga win on the spin would see Sevilla move to within three points of the summit with four rounds of fixtures left to play.
Athletic Bilbao, meanwhile, have undergone a marked improvement since Marcelino took charge at the turn of the year, however, they have won just one of their last eight La Liga matches.
With that in mind, I was slightly surprised to see a home success here trading at a general 4/6, but to get a bigger price I'll head to Bet 365's Bet Builder to feature.
If we combine Sevilla to win and over six match corners we can get an even-money (Bet 365) play and that makes plenty of appeal.
Sevilla have claimed maximum points from each of their last five league games and they have triumphed in 12/16 matches on home turf this term.
Athletic Bilbao, on the other hand, have won just 2/16 matches away from their Basque base this season, winning only only once on the road in La Liga since October.
I'm therefore more than happy to side with in-form Sevilla on Monday night, but in order to boost the price up to even-money, I'll throw over six match corners into the equation.
Marcelino's guests are averaging 5.45 flag kicks per game this season – the third-highest tally in the division – and it's also worth noting that the above-mentioned Bet Builder would have banked profit in three of Sevilla's last four league matches.
