It promises to be a thrilling end to the La Liga season, with battles at both ends of the league standings set to gain the attention. Athletic Bilbao will still have their sights set on a European finish this term, but they will need to be much more consistent in the second half of the campaign to achieve that goal.
Meanwhile, Getafe will be hoping to continue their resurgence to ease their relegation worries. The latest soccer betting odds, as well as our Athletic Club vs Getafe prediction, can be found here.

Athletic Club vs. Getafe Analysis
Athletic Club
It has been a fairly strange season for those making Athletic Club picks throughout the campaign, as the team has failed to build much in the way of momentum throughout 2022-23. The Spanish side currently sits seventh in the standings and are five points adrift of the top six places. Their form since the World Cup highlights their issues with putting a run of wins together.
Bilbao has lost six of the previous ten matches in the league, with two of their three wins over this period coming away from home. Their home form would be a pressing concern coming into this weekend, as they have lost each of their previous two at San Mames in La Liga. However, they haven’t lost three straight home games since October 2020.
Getafe
Getafe should come into this fixture in good confidence, as they have won three of their previous five in the league. That has been an excellent response from the team after failing to win their last six before beginning this run. However, it should be noted before making La Liga picks that all three of their wins have been recorded at home.
Away from home, they still have issues, and that is a reason why they find themselves just three points above the drop zone. Getafe hasn’t won away from home since October, meaning that they have gone six without a win on the road.
Over that period, they have suffered four defeats. But, they have picked up two points from their last three fixtures away from home, which could mean that there may be some value in the Getafe odds this weekend.
