The 2023-24 campaign will forever be etched in Athletic history after they ended their 40-year wait for Copa del Rey glory with a penalty-shootout win over Mallorca in April’s final.
As well as enjoying cup success, Athletic experienced a successful league campaign, collecting 68 points to clinch fifth position. After achieving their best league finish since 2015-16, Athletic will enter the new campaign with hopes of going one better and claiming their first top-four finish since 2013-14.

Last season, Getafe collected 43 points from 38 matches to finish in 12th position, breaking a run of three consecutive 15th-placed finishes.
While they have seen significant departures, Getafe have made several additions to Jose Bordalas’s squad, having recruited Jiri Letacek, Alex Sola, Peter Federico, Chrisantus Uche and Carles Perez, with the latter joining on a season-long loan deal.

Athletic proved to be a strong force at San Mames last season, winning 12, drawing six and losing just one of their previous 19 matches. We think that will continue to make full use of home advantage this term, beginning with a narrow victory in Thursday’s contest.
Athletic Bilbao 3-1 Getafe, predicted by us.
