Getafe vs Alaves Prediction & Betting tips
Getafe hopes to celebrate its first victory of the season on Saturday evening, when Alaves comes to visit the Coliseum. However, the visitors had a great start to the season, and are still unbeaten after two rounds of play.
Getafe:
Getafe was one of the surprises of last season, after the Madrilenians went completely unexpectedly with a ticket for the Europa League. This year, the formation of coach Jose Bordalas has yet to find its place. The opening match against fellow countryman Atletico Madrid was lost 1-0, and in last week’s home match against Athletic Bilbao the blue shirts got no further than a 1-1 draw. Getafe is therefore still waiting for its first victory of the new season, but Bordalas is not worried: ‘Of course we are disappointed that we did not win, but we have also given everything again against Athletic Bilbao. We are on the right track, it is only a matter of time before we can taste the sweet taste of victory again. ”
Getafe does not have to worry, but Los Azulones need a victory soon to avoid a possible mini-crisis in the Coliseum. An interland break awaits us next week, and after that Getafe can play in the group stage of the Europa League. The team is obviously looking forward to its European adventure, but there is a good chance that this will be at the expense of the results at home. Consider, for example, the Athletic Bilbao of two seasons ago and the Villarreal of last season, both of which were in need of degradation during their European tour. Getafe is therefore very keen to quickly nestle firmly in the Spanish middle bracket.
Alaves:
With a 1-0 win over Levante and a scoreless draw against Espanyol, Alaves had a great start to the competition, although the fans could have stayed home last weekend. Alaves and Espanyol played in the Mendizorroza with a total of only three shots on goal, both mainly to not lose. Summer acquisition Aleix Vidal, however, is satisfied with the way things are going: ‘If we stay afloat at Getafe, we will have done well. It is extremely important to face the international break with an undefeated status. ”
Alaves therefore has some color on her cheeks under her new coach Asier Garitano. De Bask is the successor of Abelardo, who left this summer, who handed in his contract after a dramatic second half of the season after the end of last season. Partly for this reason the blue and white do not make any illusions for the time being. “We must ensure that we play safely as quickly as possible,” said defender Rodrigo Ely. “Only then can we dream of more.”
