Getafe vs Athletic Club Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 3rd May 2024

Getafe welcome Athletic Club on Friday in the La Liga, with the host motivated by the possibility of closing the gap in the table on the visitors. On the other hand, the latter could distance themselves even further with a win in this exciting round 34 match.

There's been nothing to separate Getafe from Athletic Club in their last three matches, which all ended without a winner. This is hardly coincidental, and the question is whether either will be able to break the deadlock at Coliseum.

Getafe go into their next La Liga match, scoring a humble average of 1.2 per game in their last ten matches. They scored a mundane 12 times, while conceding 14. That amounts to an average of 1.4 per game, where they kept their opponents from scoring two times.

Athletic Club are currently decent goalscorers, as they managed a bearable 11 goals in the past ten outings for an average of 1.1 goals a game. Their opponents scored a total of 12 goals, and while Athletic Club claimed four clean sheets, they conceded an average of 1.2 goals per match.

Supporters will be hoping to see a similarly thrilling encounter, as it turned out to be the last time Getafe played against Athletic Club. It finished 2-2 in a great match between the pair.
