Valencia - Getafe predictions

Though Valencia are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

It’s highly unlikely that Getafe will manage to get some points this round. Valencia are at a considerable advantage, so even a draw would be a success for the visitors.

Valencia went behind in the first half of their last La Liga clash. Playing away against a tough rival is never easy and Valencia can even count themselves lucky to return home with a narrow Osasuna defeat.

Getafe are here on the back of a surprise upturn in the previous round. They faced Sevilla, who were projected to win at odds of 2.17. The first round was inconclusive, but Getafe pulled ahead later on and recorded a narrow 1:2 away win.

The recent history of this matchup reveals a good part of why the hosts are considered the favourites. A quick look at the stats shows a decisive victory over Getafe. The most recent clash between the two squads is from last season, though.

This Friday, both teams will be at full strength and able to give it their all.

If you’re hunting for betting value, a Draw bet is by far your best option. Success is definitely not guaranteed, but the 3.04 odds provide a decent enough return to make the risk worth it.
