On Saturday evening, midtable Getafe and Las Palmas clash at the Coliseum in La Liga as both teams look to revive their title bids in the Spanish top-flight.
Getafe hammered by Barcelona last time outThe home team suffered a 4-0 hammering at Barcelona last time out in La Liga. The defeat means that Jose Bordalas’ team has won just one of their previous five games.
The lack of recent wins has hindered Getafe’s unlikely push for a top-six spot this season, as they are now eight points adrift of the European spots.
Getafe’s recent home form in La Liga has been relatively inconsistent. However, the visitors have won five of their last seven La Liga games at the Coliseum.
Their recent matches on home soil in the Spanish top-flight have been low-scoring affairs, with under 2.5 goals scored in seven of their previous nine home matches.
Las Palmas La Liga form is underwhelmingThe Islanders’ recent form in the Spanish top flight has been underwhelming. A 1-1 home draw against Osasuna last time out means that Las Palmas has won just one of their previous five matches in La Liga.
The visitor’s recent away games in La Liga have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals in three of their last four matches in the Spanish top-flight.
Despite their recent mixed form in La Liga, Las Palmas are still in eighth place in the table, six points adrift of the European spots.
Las Palmas have struggled for any consistency on their travels of late in the Spanish top-flight, as they have won just two of the last seven away matches in La Liga while also recording one victory in their previous four away games.
What am I backing?There is very little between these two teams in the table. I am expecting a relatively even, cagey and low-scoring affair. The bet I am backing is under 2.5 goals scored.
