Getafe vs. Real Madrid: Match Prediction
Getafe is already experiencing a downturn, unable to win in four La Liga matches, and now faces one of their toughest opponents. The club hasn't earned any points in their last 7 league meetings, with 6 of those losses being "dry," but Getafe has never lost by a large margin. In 6 of these 7 encounters, no more than 2 goals were scored. Even at home, Getafe has lost 8 of the last 11 league meetings, and in 10 of those 11 matches, a maximum of 3 goals were seen.
Real Madrid has won 10 of their last 11 La Liga matches, with the 3-goal mark being the limit in 8 of these games. A similar trend is observed in away matches: the club has won 7 of their last 9 away league games, slipping only against Barcelona and Atlético Madrid, with 4 or more goals scored in only 3 matches.
Prediction – Real Madrid to win and total under 3.5 goals
