Getafe v Real Madrid Betting Preview – La Liga 14th October 3.15pm

This is another tough home task for Getafe this season who have already lost against Barcelona on home soil. Next up for them is Real Madrid who have a 100% winning record out on the road in the Spanish topflight this season. With back to back wins posted in La Liga just before the international break, they are starting to build up a head of steam perhaps after a really sloppy opening to the season. The visitors will go as firm favourites to collect the three points.

Getafe v Real Madrid Betting Tips

Getafe, after getting back up to the top flight this season have produced a W2 D2 L3 record this season in the Spanish top flight. They have faced some notable games on home soil as well so far because they have lost against Sevilla and Barcelona already, the current top two in the division. They snapped their home losing streak with a big 4-0 win over Villarreal in their most recent league home game so that was at least a good response by them. They have suffered three league defeats across the course of the season and they have all been defeats by only a one goal margin. Considering the quality sides that they have faced, that’s actually not all that bad at hints at resiliency. Real Madrid to win by a one goal margin at bet365 is a good 3/1 option for this game.

The defence of Real Madrid hasn’t been that hard to crack open this season really, so you have a price of 10/11 on both teams to score at bet365 to consider as well. Real Madrid have started to pick up a head of steam with back to back wins in the top flight. That’s the first time they have managed to win consecutive games this term. Away from home, they have taken three wins from three games but they have conceded in their last two so they have been made to work. Overall across the course of the league season, they have only collected two clean sheets so there is room for Getafe to get something on the board in this one and at least make it interesting. In the bet365 correct score market, a Real Madrid 2-1 option is a good 8/1 price.

Cristiano Ronaldo who was suspended for the start of the season, of course, is still without a La Liga goal this season but he is the 2/1 first goalscorer favourite at bet365. They are missing Gareth Bale through injury which is a blow as he has been in great form for them this season. Isco is a good 7/5 anytime goalscorer option with Marco Asensio at evens. Madrid have plenty of scoring power in their ranks still. They may have one eye on midweek when they take on Spurs in the Champions League so they may hold something back for that. Real Madrid are on a three match winning streak at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez and they have scored at least three goals in each of their last seven games against Getafe in La Liga. he last meetings were in the 2015/16 season with Real Madrid winning 5-1 away and 4-1 at home.

Getafe v Real Madrid Predictions

Real Madrid to win: Madrid haven’t been a particularly solid side at the back this season, but they should have enough to squeeze past Getafe who have narrowly lost two of their three home games this season. But this may be tight and Real Madrid to win by a one goal margin actually looks to have appeal.
