Getafe vs Athletic Prediction
Athletic Club are without a win in their last five games across competitions. This includes their 1-1 draw against Mallorca in the Copa del Rey final, which they eventually won on penalties.
They lost 3-1 against their top-four rivals Atletico Madrid in their last game, which was a huge blow to their top-four hopes. Getafe, on the other hand, beat Almeria 3-1 away in their last game.
While they have the home advantage, Athletic will be desperate to bounce back and their quality should enable them to do so as well.
