Getafe vs Real Betis Prediction
Getafe come into this one on the back of another typically hardworking display as they defeated Girona by two goals to one at Montilivi in Catalonia last weekend. The hosts have scored just 20 goals in 24 matches this season but have suffered just eight defeats, showing how difficult they are to play against. Real Betis were beaten by Gent in midweek but won their UEFA Europa League knockout playoff round tie by three goals to one on aggregate and they are in good form in La Liga as they push back towards the European spots. Having been able to rotate in midweek, the crucial absence of Uche for Getafe and the fact their good form has mainly come on the road, a double chance bet in favour of the away team may well be a good value bet for this one.
