Getafe Prediction

Getafe will be hoping their recent unbeaten run of five league matches will stand them in good stead when they prepare for the visit of La Liga leaders Barcelona, as the hosts have recorded recent wins over Espanyol and Real Sociedad as well as picking up points on the road against Athletic Bilbao, Leganes and Girona all in 1-1 draws.

It’s been a steady and successful campaign so far for the hosts who have made themselves a hard unit to break down, while their home record stands at a slightly inconsistent looking 4-1-3 8/4, although Getafe have won three of their last four on home turf.

Recent wins against Real Betis and the aforementioned Espanyol and Real Sociedad have maintained Getafe’s bid for a European spot next season as they sit just one point below 6th placed Real Betis ahead of this important clash with Barcelona.

Barcelona Prediction

Barcelona currently possess a valuable three point lead at the top of La liga but they’ll be eyeing off all three points here which would take them six points clear of second placed Atletico Madrid who have emerged as the closest rivals to Barcelona in taking the Spanish top flight league title.

Since their surprise 4-3 shock defeat at home to Real Betis, Ernesto Valverde’s side have responded in positive fashion by putting together a five-match unbeaten run in La Liga, including winning their last four on the trot.

The visitors have recorded wins against Villarreal 2-0, Espanyol 4-0, Levante 5-0 and a 2-0 win over Celta Vigo, and with an impressive away record of 5-2-1 18/7 under their belts so far this term, Barca look in good shape to take the spoils in this encounter.

In addition, the visitors have won three of their last four on their travels and with the forward trio of Suarez (11 goals), Messi (15 goals) and Dembele (7 goals) in tandem, they’ll be extremely hard to keep quiet this evening.

Betting Tips Verdict

Getafe have performed well against the teams around them in the league but they face a world class attacking side in Barcelona, and the visitors should walk away with all three points here.
