The guests from Basque are coming to the capital after a series of seven games without defeat, while on the other hand Getafe sees their chance in the fact that they have made five wins and one draw in the last six home matches. We should also add that their autumn duel in Bilbao ended without a goal
With that draw in the heart of Basque, a team from the suburbs of Madrid has also stopped the unpleasant series of even six defeats in matches with Athletic, while they will now on the wings of the aforementioned great matches on their home field finally try to reach a triumph over the guests from Bilbao. Of course, coach Bordalas's players are capable of such a thing, especially since we have already said they have made five wins and one draw in front of their fans in the previous six games.
So in the last round they routinely celebrated with 1-0 win over Malaga, and thus only strengthened their position in the middle of the table, as they have 10 points more than the 18th Deportivo, while on the other hand, they are now only three points away from the positions that lead to Europe. As for the team of Getafe for the match with Athletic, the reliable center-back Denza returns to the team after his suspension, leaving only the injured midfielder Bergara.
Probable lineups Getafe: Martinez – Suarez, Djene, Cala, Antunes – Portillo, Arambarri, Mora, Ndiaye – Rodriguez, Molina
When it comes to the guests from Basque, we have already mentioned in the introduction that they are coming to Madrid after a series of seven games without defeat, with three wins and two draws in the last five rounds of La Liga. Of course, it has brought them out of the danger zone, which is now even nine points away, so they can now completely relieved enter this match with Getafe, from which they were last time defeated in 2013.
Otherwise, Athletic has in the last round played 1-1 against Espanyol in the previous round, which was actually their first goal in the last four games played, but what is also important to point out is that they for the third time in a row succeeded in shaking the opponent’s network . That is why we can now expect a similar tactical setting from their coach Ziggue, who cannot count on the goalkeeper Arribabalago, defenders de Marcos and Balenciaga and wing striker Muniain.
Probable lineups Athletic Bilbao: Herrerin – Lekue, Nunez, Laporte, Saborit – Rico, Iturraspe – Williams, Garcia, Susaeta – Aduriz
Even though both teams have received very few goals lately, we still believe that they could play a little more risky in this mutual game, because they would with new three points get definitely involved in the battle for the positions that lead to Europe.
Pick: both teams to score
