Athletic could beat Getafe in the last round on the road. However, the lions, who opened the scoring already in the 9th minute, did not have enough strength to keep the winning result. 15 minutes before the final whistle the opponent made the score equal to 1:1. There were no more goals in the match. We think that such a result is quite successful for Athletic. The team managed to break the streak of 3 consecutive away defeats. Today representatives of Bilbao are in 9th place in the standings. In 10 rounds they earned 13 points. The gap from the European Cup zone is only 2 points. Gaiski Garitano’s charges show very good results this season at the home arena. In the first game at San Mames against Cadiz they lost (0:1), but then there was a series of 3 victories in a row (over Levante, Sevilla and Betis). After 4 home matches the Basques have 8 goals scored with 2 conceded. As in previous seasons the lions remain more of a grassroots team. 6 of their matches out of 10 ended in total under 2.5. In addition, in 6 cases a bet was recorded on “OZ – no”.
The Apaches stumbled over Konyaspor in an away match that took place immediately after the international break. However, the team instantly transformed and knocked out two victories in a row with a total score of 5:0. In the national cup Kasimpasha scored three unanswered goals against 24 Erzinjansora, whereas in the last round Genclerbirligi grabbed two goals.
