Betis vs Getafe Predictions This week’s action in Spanish La Liga starts on Friday night at Estadio Benito Villamarin where Real Betis welcomes the underdogs Getafe. Visitors are having really rough period behind them, being winless for a long time. There is no doubt they would be happy to escape Sevilla with one point.
If we look at the table, these are two teams that both may be considered to belong to the middle battle, but where Real Betis really has a significantly better starting position after 23 rounds played. With their 33 recorded points, you have now suddenly hanged on a European spot.
The whole thing can be explained by the fact that Real Betis has recently found the form and that it should tell that you should be able to go to win even if you let in a little too many (38) goals. There is actually only one team (Cadiz) that lets in more goals this season in La Liga.
With a good shape, a lot to play for and home ground, I see Real Betis taking on this game with an offensive spirit, and trying to go to win. It’ll open up the game.
Getafe brings a strong team, but comes from a weak trend with five straights with no win, and four losses on these five rounds.
The only thing in the away team can comfort themselves with the knowledge that as late as September they beat Real Betis with a whole 3-0 at home. Obviously, you know how to hurt your opponents.
Real Betis is the only team that faced this season that has problems with injuries and needs to patch up a couple of players to get the starting eleven that you want.
It doesn’t matter what kind of miracle you get on players like Dani Martin, Victor Camarasa and Marc Bartra, no one in the trio will be in this game. We can count on that right now.
However, Real Betis has some hopes for Victor Ruiz, while Borja Iglesias has returned to the training plan this week, and for this reason, may start in the role of striker against Getafe.
In the away team, there are no shortcomings at all, and in addition, one player, Djene, is returned after a two-game suspension. He is most likely stepping in as an additional reinforcement in the defense game here.
But since the home team is in good shape, I think they’ll score here.
