Match Analysis

Getafe has been enduring a challenging run, suffering defeats in their last three matches. They failed to score any goals, losing 3-0 against Valencia, 1-0 against Vallecano, and another 1-0 defeat at home to Real Madrid. This poor offensive output is reflected in their recent average of 1.0 goals scored per game across the last five matches, while they have conceded an average of 1.8 goals. Despite generating an expected goals figure of 1.472, their inability to convert chances has been costly. Athletic Bilbao, on the other hand, has demonstrated resilience in their recent performances. They have recorded two wins and a draw in their last three games, maintaining a solid defensive record with clean sheets against Alaves and Las Palmas. Bilbao's defense is in fine form, conceding just 0.4 goals on average across their last five games, which is supported by their three clean sheets. While their offensive output remains low at 0.2 goals per game, their defensive solidity could be pivotal against a struggling Getafe side.

Final Prediction

Athletic Bilbao's superior defensive record and recent form give them a distinct advantage over Getafe. With Bilbao's strong defense and Getafe's struggles to score, the matchup may hinge on Bilbao's ability to capitalize on their limited scoring opportunities. A key factor to watch will be whether Getafe can break their scoring drought against a defensively astute Bilbao side.
