Goal Statistics

Athletic Bilbao have been consistent in attack of late, finding the net in 17 consecutive Europa League games. Their PG of 1.6 against Roma on Thursday suggests they're likely to extend that run.

Athletic Bilbao's defensive record is very strong, E. Valverde Tejedor's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Europa League games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.1 for Roma makes sense in this context.
