Athletic Bilbao vs Getafe Prediction 20 August 2017

Athletic Bilbao take on the visitors Getafe at "San Mames" in the opening round of the Spanish LaLiga of 2017/2018 season. The game will be played in Bilbao on Sunday, August 20th.

Last season Athletic Bilbao occupied the seventh place in the elite division standings with 63 points taken and 53-43 goal difference. The Basques conducted their transfer campaign basing on the club's philosophy: the roster is formed exceptionally by the Spaniards, thus, there is no sense to talk about arrivals as the players' surnames will not say much to those who not dedicated to Spanish football. Athletic Bilbao was the first team which entered the season in Spain, having performed in the Qualification of the UEFA Europa League. The Basques have knocked out already Dinamo Bucuresti 1:1, 3:0 and last Thursday they got away victory over Panathinaikos with 3:2 scoreline being 0:2 behind. Taking into account last season, Athletic Bilbao's undefeated home run counts for five clashes.

In previous season Getafe played in the LaLiga2, having settled on the third position in the table with 68 points earned and 55-43 goal difference. Afterwards the side promoted to the elite division, having broken Huesca 2:2, 3:0 and Tenerife 0:1, 3:1 in the Play Offs. On having promoted to the LaLiga, Getafe engaged a few players, having spent more than 10 million EUR on them which makes up a great sum for the small club. Djene Dakonam and Amath Diedhiou were the most expensive footballers - three and 2.5 million EUR respectively, plus "Azulones" rented a couple strong performers.

Athletic Bilbao won last six head-to-heads against Getafe with 12:2 aggregated score. The Basques will play in face of their fans being extremely dangerous at the home ground, besides they have started the season for a quite long time ago plus they have better and well-knit line-up than the visitors which means the hosting side must win in the forthcoming battle.

Prediction for the match: Athletic Bilbao to win.
