Getafe is currently not finding a way out of the form crisis. The team of head coach Pepe Bordalás got just one point in the last four games and slipped in the table. The lead over a relegation place is now only three points, accordingly the 14th of La Liga can currently not allow himself to lose any more points.
Bordalás and his team will be visiting Andalusia on Friday evening and will face Betis Sevilla. In contrast to the ailing club from Getafe, the shape curve of the Andalusians is quite impressive. In La Liga, the Verdiblancos have only lost one game in the last seven games, most recently they even won the six-point game against Villarreal.
▪️The last few weeks could not have gone better for the Verdiblancos from Seville. The Andalusians not only shortened the gap to the international starting positions, but also prevailed in the important duel against Villarreal. Betis is ahead of its direct competitor in the H2H comparison and can therefore take sixth place in the table if there is a tie.
▪️Head coach Manuel Pellegrini does not want to miss this great opportunity on Friday evening. The Chilean is building on the team’s most recent form curve. In La Liga, Betis has recorded a record of 4-2-1 in the last seven games, with only the home game against FC Barcelona being lost as close as possible.
▪️At the Estadio Benito Villamarín, the Andalusians did not lose five times in a row before the home defeat against FCB. Among other things, the Verdiblancos even scored against their strong city rivals. The guests from Getafe are, in contrast to the strong offensive Andalusians, rather harmless and statistically even represent the weakest attacking department in the league.
▪️On Friday evening, the Verdiblancos will for the most part compete with the best cast. Pellegrini will only have to do without Camarasa, Martin and Bartra against the guests from Getafe. But with Iglesias and Lainez, two key players in the Betis offensive are again operational. It is quite possible that Iglesias (three goals) will replace Morón (one goal) in the lead.
▪️Pepe Bordalás is currently walking on thin ice. So far, the Getafe CF coach has not been able to lead his team out of the crisis. In the past few weeks, the table situation has even worsened. Last year’s eighth of La Liga only got one point in the last five games, so the point cushion on the relegation places has been reduced to three points.
▪️If the crisis persists, it is only a matter of time before Getafe slips into the red zone. Last week, Getafe suffered their third defeat in a row, and for the fourth time in a row there was no goal for Pepe Bordalás’s team.
▪️Surprising is the poor result from table 14. Anyway, after all, the attack department is by no means badly staffed. In the winter transfer window, Getafe CF has also strengthened its position with players like Carles Alena and Takefusa Kubo, but the desired turnaround did not materialize on the offensive.
▪️Statistically, Getafe CF was the weakest attack in the league at the moment. Pepe Bordalás’s team scored just 17 goals this season, an average of less than one goal per league game.
Football Prediction of the Day Betis vs Getafe
In the foreign country, Getafe has a record of 2-3-6. This makes the Bordalás team the third weakest away team in La Liga. Most recently, Getafe had three away defeats in a row, conceding a total of ten goals.
If you consider how strong the offensive from Friday’s opponent was last, a clean slate in Andalusia can be ruled out. If the Bordalás team defies the role of outsider at Friday’s opponent, attractive odds can be tapped for a tip on the guests at Betis Sevilla vs. Getafe. There were no serious failures among the guests on Friday evening.
