Getafe vs. Alaves: Match Prediction
The teams show similar results this season and are close in the standings. I expect a tough battle in the upcoming match, which is unlikely to be spectacular. Both clubs are not known for their attacking play, and their matches in La Liga are usually low-scoring. Head-to-head matches are no exception: no more than 2 goals have been scored in 9 of the last 10 encounters in La Liga.
Moreover, Getafe has consistently earned points against the Basques. They have not lost to Alaves in 11 of their last 12 head-to-head matches in La Liga (4 wins, 7 draws), including winning both meetings last season. I anticipate a similar result in the upcoming game and believe the hosts will not lose to their comfortable opponent in a low-scoring match.
Therefore, my prediction is 1X and Total under 2.5 goals
