Barcelona have been a dominant force at home, securing nine victories from their last 11 La Liga matches, a trend they will aim to continue as they push for the top of the league. In contrast, Getafe are battling relegation, having lost nine of their last 13 games.
Given Barcelona’s recent home form, it’s unlikely that this match will see more than three goals. In fact, 16 of their last 19 home fixtures have ended with under 3.5 goals. Likewise, 14 of Getafe’s last 16 La Liga matches have also seen fewer than 3.5 goals, suggesting a low-scoring game is on the cards.
Barcelona have also kept a clean sheet in each of their last five La Liga outings, while Getafe have failed to score in their last three away matches, indicating this trend could very well continue.
Prediction
Barcelona are in excellent shape, having won 14 of their last 16 league games, including five straight victories.
Meanwhile, Getafe have struggled away from home, losing six of their last eight road games, including a defeat in their last meeting with Barcelona.
Prediction: Barcelona 2-0 Getafe
