Getafe

LLLLDD 📉

Getafe go into this game coming off the back of a 0-0 La Liga drawn game vs Rayo Vallecano.

Getafe have really been misfiring of late. Their ‘goals for’ figure stands at just 2 versus opposing sides during their last 6 outings. In those games, Getafe have also seen the tally of goals scored against them come to 8. Let’s find out whether or not that trend will be sustained in this game.

Looking at their past form shows that Getafe:

• have not emerged victorious against Real Sociedad in their last 3 matches in the league.
• are without a home win in the past 6 league games. That's never good.

Real Sociedad

WWLLWL

Since suffering a loss in their previous game against Alaves in La Liga competition, Real Sociedad and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In that match, Real Sociedad managed 53% possession and 10 shots on goal with 1 of them on target. The scorer for Real Sociedad was Brais Méndez (33'). At the other end, Alaves had 14 attempts on goal with 5 of them on target. Villalibre (45') and Toni Martínez (77') scored for Alaves.

For 5 of the previous six games involving Real Sociedad, a comparatively low number of goals have gone in between them and their opposition. The overall average goals scored per game during that spell comes out as just 1.5, with the average goals for Txuri-urdin equalling 0.83.

Their past results show that Real Sociedad:

• have not won against Getafe in away games against them for the last 3 league games.
• are unbeaten in their previous 2 away league matches.

↔️ Head to head

A review of their most recent head-to-head meetings going back to 03/10/2021 shows us that Getafe have won 1 of these games and Real Sociedad 2, with the tally of drawn results being 3.

An aggregate of 16 goals were shared by the two clubs throughout the course of those matches, with 7 from Azulones and 9 netted by Txuri-urdin. That’s an average goals per game figure of 2.67.

The last league encounter featuring the two was La Liga match day 32 on 21/04/2024 when the final score was Getafe 1-1 Real Sociedad.

On that occasion, Getafe had 40% possession and 7 shots on goal with 4 on target. Their only player on the scoresheet was Óscar Rodríguez (29').

Real Sociedad got 7 shots on goal with 3 of them on target. Barrenetxea (13') was the scorer.

The referee was Víctor García Verdura.

🗞️ Team News: Getafe

We are thinking that Azulones may well make use of the 4-2-3-1 system for the game with David Soria, Juan Iglesias, Djene, Omar Alderete, Diego Rico, Luis Milla, Nabil Aberdin, Carles Perez, Bertug Yildirim, Alex Sola and Chrisantus Uche.

📋 Team News: Real Sociedad

Real Sociedad manager Imanol Alguacil has some current player fitness concerns. Álvaro Odriozola (Ankle injury) and Arsen Zakharyan (Tendon tear) can’t be considered.

It’s our belief that Txuri-urdin will likely play in a 4-4-2 lineup with a starting lineup of Alex Remiro, Hamari Traore, Igor Zubeldia, Jon Pacheco, Jon Aramburu, Takefusa Kubo, Martin Zubimendi, Benat Turrientes, Sergio Gomez, Umar Sadiq and Brais Mendez.

💭 Prediction

We believe that Getafe will need to apply a lot of pressure to break down this Real Sociedad team who should score one, at least.

We’re going for a narrow 0-1 advantage for Real Sociedad at the end of the 90 minutes.

Should be interesting.
