Match Analysis

In their last three matches, Athletic Bilbao has shown a mixed bag of results, with a win against Mallorca, a draw against Elche, and a narrow loss to Villarreal. Their defensive setup seems solid, having kept a clean sheet against Elche and conceding only one goal each in the other two encounters.

Their defense has been porous, conceding a total of four goals across these games. From an advanced metrics perspective, Athletic Bilbao appears stronger, averaging 1.4 goals per match while conceding just one. Their expected goals (xG) indicate they create more quality chances than they concede, with 1.8 xG scored versus 0.51 xG conceded. Conversely, Getafe's metrics reveal vulnerabilities, with a higher average of goals conceded (1.8) and a lower expected goals scored (0.934), suggesting struggles in both attack and defense.

Final Prediction

Athletic Bilbao's solid defense and ability to create quality scoring opportunities give them a significant edge over Getafe. The game is likely to be a low-scoring affair, given both teams' recent underwhelming goal-scoring form. A key factor to watch is Bilbao's defense, which has been the backbone of their recent performances and could be crucial in securing the predicted victory.
