On Saturday afternoon, Barcelona will look to extend their recent unbeaten run when they welcome Getafe to the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys in La Liga.
A draw at Napoli last time outLast time out, the Catalan giants drew 1-1 with reigning Italian champions Napoli on Wednesday night in the Champions League last-16 first leg.
The draw means that the reigning Spanish champions are unbeaten in their last five games in all competitions. The undefeated run includes a four-game run in La Liga, having recorded three wins and a draw.
The Blaugrana have also been prolific in front of goal of late in the Spanish top-flight, scoring at least two goals in seven of their last eight outings.
The recent decent run has moved Barcelona to within two points of second-place Girona but eight points behind arch-rivals and league leaders Real Madrid. However, the Catalan team are only three points ahead of fourth-place Atletico Madrid.
Getafe are tough to beat of lateThe club from the Spanish capital has been inconsistent of late, but a 1-1 draw at Villarreal last time out means that they have lost just one of their previous five games in La Liga.
Jose Bordalas’ team will be considered outsiders for a top-six spot in La Liga, as they are six points adrift of the European spots.
The visitor's recent matches in the Spanish top flight have been low-scoring encounters, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five games.
Getafe have struggled for wins on their recent travels in the La Liga, as they have won just one of their previous 14 away games. They have also kept just one clean sheet in their last seven La Liga matches on the road.
What am I backing?Barcelona have been in decent form recently, while Getafe has been inconsistent recently. With that in mind, the bet I am backing is the home win.
