Alaves vs Getafe Prediction (15.08.2026)

Alavés finished in 14th place last season, just one point above the relegation zone. This is despite a strong finish to the campaign, where they avoided defeat in eight of the 12 matches managed by Kike Sánchez Flores (4 wins, 4 losses), who remains in charge for this season. Alavés scored in each of those matches but managed to achieve only two wins from their last nine home matches last season.

Getafe finished seventh and secured European participation, with a playoff for entry into the main phase of the Conference League awaiting them next week. This marked their best finish since 2019, although only relegated Oviedo finished with fewer goals than Getafe. Now, the loss of leading scorer Mauro Arambarri and midfielder Luis Milla during the transfer window may negatively affect the team's scoring ability even further.

Getafe was a symbol of low-scoring matches overall last season. The history between these two teams also shows matches with few goals, as under 2.5 goals occurred in 11 of the last 12 encounters between them. This still seems possible to me, and it's no coincidence that the odds are so low.
