Bookmaker Ratings prediction three – Handicap Getafe -1 goal – 3.70
Getafe are one of the most in-form teams at home, having won their last four games at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez stadium. Apart from that, they face Alaves, the worst away team in the league, and who have lost in their last five away games. We see Getafe as clear favourites for this match.
Getafe have scored nine goals in their last five home games, an average of almost two goals per game, while Alaves have conceded 17 goals in their last five away games, an average of just over three goals conceded per game. Therefore, especially given Alaves’ defensive weaknesses, we think Getafe can win this match with at least two total goals scored.
As we think that Getafe can win this match by a difference of at least two goals, we think it is a good Handicap to subtract a goal from them so that they could still win the match.
Getafe’s last three matches have been marked by the huge difference between the first halves and the second halves, with a total of 12 goals in those matches, ten of those 12 goals coming in the first halves, while only two in the second halves. The difference is very big, and at the same time, something atypical, as normally the first halves are usually more defensive and the second halves more offensive, but this is not the case for this team.
One fact that speaks well for Getafe’s defensive concentration is that in their last 14 matches, they have only conceded three goals in the second half, not bad for a team that is in the bottom half of the table.
The first ten minutes and the last ten minutes of matches are the two periods in which Getafe have scored the most goals so far, with five goals scored in both periods.
Not many positive things can be mentioned about Alaves’ season, neither offensively nor defensively. In their last ten games they have scored only seven goals, while conceding 21.
Alaves’ notable improvement in their last four games has been that they have not conceded a single goal in the first halves of those games, however, in all of those games they conceded at least one goal in the second halves.
As mentioned above, Getafe’s last three games have had a total of ten goals in the first half, so we think this game could follow a similar trend and have more than 0.5 total goals in the first half. This bet has odds of 1.61 at William Hill.
Getafe go into the game with Carles Aleñá, Abdulai and Mathias Olivera missing.

Highlighted Player
Enes Unal
The Turkish striker’s season is surprising many, with 11 goals in 24 games, five of which have come in his last four matches. We think that due to his current form, which is very good, he could be the standout player for this match.
