2025-26 Spanish La Liga
Matchday 10
Athletic Bilbao v Getafe
Estadio San Mames
Bilbao, Spain
Saturday, 25 October 2025
Kick-off is at 18h30
Athletic Bilbao will go in search of only their second
La Liga win since August when they host Getafe at San Mames on Saturday, October 25.
The Lions have struggled to convert performances into results as two of their three defeats this season have been by a solitary goal and they haven't conceded more than two in a single game.
Ernesto Valverde's side arrested a worrying four-match winless run with a 2-1 victory over Real Mallorca on October 4 before playing out to their first goalless draw of the campaign against Elche last time out.
The Basque outfit are just two points outside the UEFA Champions League places in eighth position and they still have the second-best defensive record in the league after shipping nine goals in nine games.
The Azulones made a promising start to the campaign, winning three of their opening four encounters, but their form has dipped since then.
Jose Bordalas' side have only collected two points from their last five outings and October has started with back-to-back defeats against Osasuna (2-1) and Real Madrid (1-0).
As such, Getafe find themselves five points above the relegation zone in 12th spot, level with Rayo Vallecano (11th) on 11 points.
Valverde admitted they lacked composure in the final third against Los Franjiverdes, but he was pleased with their shape in defence to keep the hosts at bay.
"It wasn't a brilliant match. It couldn't have gone either way at any moment, but today's football wasn't very fluid. We lacked a bit of composure," the Spaniard said.
"It all comes down to getting into your opponent's area and how often and how well you create dangerous situations.
"Due to the difficulties created by Elche, we lacked composure and weren't good in attack, but we were more effective in defence."
