Getafe vs Real Betis Betting Tips

Getafe have found some form at an important time in the season and come into this game unbeaten in 5 matches. Their most recent win came at Sporting Gijon on Monday night and it lifted the club above Real Betis and into 13th place.

The two clubs are level on points though and both hold a solid 5 point cushion on the bottom 3 but the loser in this game will certainly be looking over their shoulders particularly if it is Real Betis.

Pepe Mel’s side haven’t scored a league goal for over a month and have endured a nightmare 10 days coming into this match. They were beaten 4-0 twice, once somewhat understandably at Barcelona but they followed that with a desperate 4-0 home defeat to Eibar which really has increased the pressure on their manager with Juande Ramos rumoured to be in contention to replace him.

They were beaten 2-0 at home by bitter rivals Sevilla in the Copa del Rey in midweek and come into this game with their confidence severely dented. Even their away form, which had been good seems to have deserted them a little and given Getafe have won 5 of their last 9 at home, losing only to Barcelona, the hosts look worth backing at 19/20 to win this.

Real Betis have always looked a little reliant on Ruben Castro for goals and right now just don’t look like scoring. Getafe have kept clean sheets at home to the likes of Villarreal and Deportivo in recent weeks and a repeat of their 2-0 win over the Yellow Submarine could be on the cards here and can be backed at 15/2.
