Match Preview
Kuko Ziganda has started to turn his side’s fortunes around, ahead of our Getafe vs Athletic Bilbao preview and soccer odds, but the home side’s form at Coliseum Alfonso Perez is a rather big warning sign.

Getafe have been capable of picking up plenty of points on their own patch, as well as forcing the likes of Sevilla, Barcelona, and Real Madrid to grind out narrow results in the capital. For Athletic Bilbao, this should be no walk in the park whatsoever.
Our Getafe vs Athletic Bilbao predictions are based off the hosts’ form in front of their own support, which makes backing the hosts to end Athletic’s resurgent form look very tempting within our La Liga tips.
Athletic have boasted very good form and resolve at home throughout this campaign, but they can often lack an edge on their travels. Defensively, too, they are very leaky away from San Mames.
Getafe vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction and Betting Advice
Athletic have been looking far better in recent weeks, with Ziganda able to steer his side away from the relegation battle and into the upper reaches of the table. In Madrid, however, they should come unstuck, with Getafe offering up very competitive performances so far this season in LaLiga at home.
Betfair offer the best value on a home win, with Getafe coming out of 2017 having gone unbeaten in their last five matches at Coliseum Alfonso Perez. Only the likes of Barca, Real Madrid, and Sevilla have managed to scrape wins at their ground, meaning that Los Leones have their work cut out to join such esteemed company.
Athletic ended the calendar year with two away wins, but both of those came up against two teams that were really struggling to find their own feet, Levante and Real Betis. Getafe have been consistent and solid all season and should make for a very different proposition altogether.
Our Getafe vs Athletic Bilbao bets back this to be a fairly tight affair, taking into account the fact that the Basque club have clicked into gear lately. Although they have scored two goals against the likes of Deportivo, Levante, and Betis on the road in La Liga, they will not have the same fortune against a well-drilled Getafe outfit.
The home side ended 2017 with three home clean sheets, with Vicente Guaita starring in goal behind a back four that continues to be organised, uncompromising and tough to break down. Jose Bordalas may be missing a couple of key men due to injury, but his collective works well together and should frustrate the visitors. William Hill offer the best odds on there being under three clear goals in Madrid.
Our Getafe vs Athletic Bilbao betting tips suggest that Athletic’s resurgence of late should come to a grinding halt against a team that can compete with anyone at Coliseum Alfonso Perez this season.
