The eight-time Spanish champion was not necessarily the favourite in Valencia, but made a commitment to the game. Raul Garcia’s early 1-0 in the first quarter of an hour naturally played into the cards of the guests (13th). After the change of sides it went even faster and Bilbao increased to 2-0 at the almost perfect time – Raul Garcia tied up a double pack and thus already decided the game (47th).
The Garitano eleven celebrated their second win in a row and won three of the last four games in the La Liga. The only defeat in this period was on the 31st day of the match at FC Barcelona (0-1). Athletic scored ten points in the past four home games – Villarreal (1-0), Atletico Madrid (1-1), Betis Sevilla (1-0), RCD Mallorca (3-1). Only nine times the Los Leones scored a home goal – best home offensive. With 20 home goals, however, only five teams in their own stadium are even safer. The showpiece remains the defensive with 28 goals conceded after 33 days of play. Only the two top clubs from Madrid defend better.
Benat Etxebarria is the only player injured against the royals.

Zinedine Zidane’s team had a bad start to their home game against Getafe. The guests were better and also had the first big opportunity to tour Maksimovic, which prevented Real-Keeper Courtois with a flash reflex (9th). It took Real a while to get the first chance – Vinicius Junior failed due to Bilbao goalie Soria (23rd). The Spanish record champion pulled the reins. Except for one shot by Isco, however, they remained harmless (36th). In the second period, the visitors stood in the back, but defended well. After less than an hour, a deflected shot of Modric clapped at the post (58th). The white ballet continued to build pressure. In the 68th minute, Benzema missed the better positioned Kroos and decided to shoot. Nothing came of Getafe and in the final phase Sergio Ramos turned a foul penalty into a 1-0 victory for the Madrilenes (79th).
The Zidane-Elf scored their sixth consecutive victory against Getafe and managed to win the last three games without conceding. The last two away games at Espanyol Barcelona (1-0) and Real Sociedad (2-1) were won. Before that, however, the royal weaknesses showed. There was nothing countable in Levante (0-1) and Betis Seville (1-2). However, Real is the best away team in the La Liga. Nobody defends better in a stranger (11 goals conceded). 25 goals were scored away. Only FC Sevilla scored again. The royals have the safest defensive line-up (21 goals) and the second best offensive (61 goals) after 33 days of play.
Reinier and Nacho Fernandez are injured in Bilbao.
