Betting on Getafe
Despite its best efforts and coming close to attaining a valuable draw against Real Madrid in the previous matchday, Getafe ended up losing 1-0 with a goal conceded in the 70th minute. With this result, the team could not take advantage of the defeats suffered by those two team ahead in the standings.
Sitting in 18th place, Getafe is just one point away from getting out of the relegation zone, so this home game against the last-placed team is crucial in order to take all three points and climb out of the bottom.
At the very least, playing at home should give the team the necessary confidence to secure a positive result in this matchup. In fact, Getafe has only lost one of its last seven home matches, earning 14 out of 21 possible points in the process with a record that includes four wins, two draws, one loss.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): David Soria; Damián Suárez, Stefan Mitrovic, Omar Alderete, Gastón Álvarez; Carles Aleñá, Djene, Nemanja Maksimovic; Portu, Enes Ünal, Borja Mayoral.
Betting on Elche
Elche has found a glimmer of joy in its dreadful season. Although its relegation to the second division is confirmed, the team arrives to this match after achieving a remarkable 1-0 victory over third-placed team, Atlético Madrid, in the last matchday.
Now, with the morale high, Sebastián Beccacece’s men will be looking to secure consecutive league wins for the first time since April 2022. However, it will not be an easy task, considering that the team has lost each of its last five away games.
In fact, Elche is the worst away team in La Liga, recording only one win and six points accumulated in 17 matches played. Nonetheless, the team might gain some momentum if it manages to keep in mind that it has not lost in its four previous visits to the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez in the top flight, including a recent 0-1 victory.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Edgar Badía; Helibelton Palacios, Pedro Bigas, Carlos Clerc, Lautaro Blanco; John Donald, Fidel, Gerard Gumbau, Tete Morente; Randy Nteka, Lucas Boyé.
JefeBet Prediction
With the pressure to win over its shoulders, Getafe will go all out on attack from the start. Despite not being the most effective offensive team in the league, it has only failed to score once in its last seven home matches, against Barcelona. Moreover, the team will feel confident about being able to do a better job against the worst defense in the tournament.
Getafe is also known for being a solid defensive team at home, which they should demonstrate again against Elche, which has scored the fewest amount of goals in La Liga. Therefore, we expect Getafe to deliver a superior performance and comfortably secure a victory in this match.
Prediction: Getafe Moneyline (GET 2-0 ELC).
