Getafe hosts Alaves in round 26 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, February 26th at Coliseum Alfonso Perez (Getafe)
Yes, Getafe did not win in the last round, but it generally had a pretty good match against Cadiz and earned one point on a foreign pitch (1-1). Not so long ago, the Blues were in the relegation zone. But now they are in 15th place in the standings with 26 points. The gap from the relegation zone is six points. The men of Quique Sanchez Flores continue their home unbeaten streak. It amounts to seven matches (six victories and one draw). The overall indicators of the Blues on the home pitch are as follows: six wins, two draws, and four defeats with a goal difference of 17-11. For comparison, Getafe scored only seven goals and earned only six points in 13 away games.

Alaves played their last match at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. In general, nobody expected anything from the Basques, and Real Madrid confidently won with a score of 3-0. The Glorious Ones are now fighting for survival. They have only 20 points in their assets, and this is enough to be in 19th place in the standings. But the gap to the saving 17th line is not so large (only four points). I don't think that Jose Luis Mendilibar's men have a chance to get hold of points in the upcoming game. It's not even about the strength of the opponent, but how Alaves performs away this season. In 12 away matches, only five points were scored: one victory, two draws, and nine defeats with a goal difference of 9-27. There is no team in La Liga that has performed worse on foreign pitches than Alaves.
A head-to-head match between Getafe and Alaves in the first half of the current championship ended in a 1-1 draw. Seven of the last eight head-to-head confrontations ended with Under 2.5 goals scored. Getafe has been very good at home lately. The Blues won six out of seven previous home matches (with one draw). I am sure that the men of Quique Sanchez Flores will only play to win. Moreover, they will host the worst Spanish team in terms of away results. Given the history of head-to-head confrontations, most likely we will not see a large number of goals scored. However, I prefer to bet on the home team to win.
Prediction for the match: Getafe to win
