The match was refereed by Jesús Gil Manzano.

There’s just a single fitness concern for the Getafe boss Quique Sánchez Flores to be concerned about thanks to an otherwise robust group. Mauro Arambarri (Ankle Injury) won’t play.

We are thinking that Azulones may well use a 5-3-2 formation for this game with David Soria, Damian Suarez, Domingos Duarte, Stefan Mitrovic, Djené Dakonam, Fabricio Angileri, Carles Aleña, Luis Milla, Nemanja Maksimovic, Borja Mayoral and Enes Ünal.

Thanks to a mainly healthy group, there’s only the sole fitness worry for the Athletic Bilbao manager Ernesto Valverde to be concerned with. Yuri Berchiche (Heel pain) won’t be playing here.

From our viewpoint, Los Leones appear most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 system, giving starts to Unai Simón, Óscar de Marcos, Yeray Álvarez, Íñigo Martinez, Iñigo Lekue, Oihan Sancet, Mikel Vesga, Nico Williams, Iker Muniain, A. Berenguer Remiro and Iñaki Williams.

Here, we’re thinking that Getafe will need things to go their way to register a score against this Athletic Bilbao team who should manage to score & go ahead.

That’s why our selection here is for a hard-fought 0-1 advantage for Athletic Bilbao at the end of the match.

Hopefully it’s a good one.
