It was an improvement for the hosts as they have now won 2 and drawn 1 of their last 4 matches in the league.
With their win against Cadiz at the end of October, the good run of results will give them confidence to gain a good result.
But even after the draw, they remain in 19th place with 10 points in the bag and having plenty to do in hope to salvage their season.
On the other end, Athletic Club come into this after a narrow 1-0 loss to Real Madrid in their previous clash.
Benzema scored the only goal of the clash to inflict a 3rd loss of the season on Bilbao. With 20 points from 15 matches, Athletic Club is in 10th place but have been winless since their win over Villarreal last month.
They have drawn 3 and lost 2 of their last 6 La Liga matches, due to which the mood in the camp isn’t its best.
Athletic Club beat Granada 5-1 at home the last time both these sides met in the La Liga in January.

Prediction: Getafe 1-1 Athletic Club
There has been a change of mood in the home side since the last month went pretty well. But they still have a lot of work to do.
Whereas, the visitors remain winless for a while and are losing their confidence in how to turn things around.
There is quiet a gap in the two sides in terms of quality but with current form going well for Getafe, we expect a closely fought stalemate in this one.
Players to watch out for: Olivera, Ramirez, Williams and Berenguer.
