Real Betis - Getafe predictions

Real Betis might be heading into this game as firm favourites to get a win but they will have their work cut out for them as Getafe are known to be highly unpredictable and capable of pulling a surprise when it is least expected.

Getafe appear severely unprepared for a clash with Betis, to the point of being considered hard underdogs. We would consider even a draw a success, so the long 4.60 odds for an away win bit seem fitting.

Both Real Betis fans and punters will have been rather delighted by their last La Liga match. Their Mallorca win was a bettor’s dream, knowing it was an odds-defying HT/FT victory.

Getafe’s latest La Liga performance against Real Madrid ended in a harsh 0:2 defeat, though that’s not saying a lot about their current form. They never had much of a shot despite the home-field advantage, and their opponents dictated the pace of the whole game.

Our confidence that Getafe will manage to hold their composure in an away game is shaky. They have over 5 concessions on record in their latest 3 visiting games alone.

At this point, the clash between these two teams is notorious for producing inconclusive results. They already have several tied matches on record in this season alone, which is ultimately worse for the home team who are considered favourites.

They may be favoured to win, but the home team are still playing at an extreme disadvantage because a lot of their players suffered an injury recently. Guido Rodríguez, Claudio Bravo, Aitor Ruibal, Ayoze Pérez, Bartra will not be able to play, putting the team in a dangerous situation.

Though the odds are against the visitors, at least they’ll be in a position to put up as much of a fight as possible. All of their lineup is accounted for in this match, with no issues from suspensions or injuries.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.67. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
