Getafe take on the visitors Real Madrid in the postponed round 20 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Thursday, February 1st at Coliseum (Getafe).
Getafe had recently played under Bordalas. Moreover, it was a peak time of rapid progress when, having emerged from the Segunda under this coach, they transited to the Europa League and then made it to the playoffs. Then, just a bit, literally one victory, was not enough to secure fourth place, the Champions League spot. As soon as Pepe left (to later reach the cup final with Valencia), his former charges slid into a battle for survival. Moreover, they didn't drop back to Segunda last spring because the coach returned. And after the summer break, he managed to lift the team to the top of the table. However, after the winter holiday break, there were a series of setbacks. Particularly noteworthy was the defeat to Rayo Vallecano, with three send-offs and a couple of goals conceded. Then they managed to lose at home to crisis-ridden Sevilla in the cup. And Osasuna scored one more goal. They only managed to defeat crisis-stricken Granada, and by 2-0.

Real (Madrid) will now focus on the main tournaments of this season. The Creams managed, unlike the previous cycle, to beat Barcelona in the Super Cup final. Moreover, they completely thrashed the blaugranas in Saudi Arabia 4-1, winning the trophy. But just a few days later, Anceletti's charges, conceding a couple of goals in extra time (by the way, Lunin was in goal again) after a scoring draw in regular time against Atletico, were knocked out of the Spanish Cup. Of course, the battle in the Champions League lies ahead, where the Galacticos traditionally aim for maximum results in the form of another big-eared trophy. But for now, they should focus on La Liga, where, on the one hand, they've pulled away from Barcelona and other usual pursuers, on the other hand, they can't shake off the sensationally lively and stubborn competitor in the form of Girona. Moreover, the favorite recently conceded a couple of goals to the main outsider, Almeria, and laboriously (with a goal in the 99th minute by Carvajal) and with scandal secured a comeback victory. And Las Palmas created problems, and it was only in the 84th minute, with Tchuameni's goal, that a determined victory was secured.
In early autumn, the Galacticos secured a 2-1 victory at home. This is already the 4th consecutive win of the giant over the Blues. The Blues are clearly weaker but decent, and their prestigious neighbor has not resolved its defensive issues. Here we recommend betting on total over 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
