Sevilla vs Getafe Betting Tips

There was late heartbreak in Manchester on Wednesday night for Sevilla and their travelling fans as Kevin De Bruyne scored a 90th minute winner for City in the Champions League. Sevilla will already be plotting their revenge when the English side visit Spain in a fortnight but they have work to do in the league first and they desperately need to improve on their current 13th place.

Unai Emery’s side are starting to look more like the Sevilla team that finished 5th in La Liga and won the Europa League last season though. They had chances to perhaps even win the game in Manchester with Kevin Gameiro missing a couple of golden opportunities and they have taken 7 points from their last 3 league matches including an impressive 2-1 win over Barcelona.

They are still below this week’s opponents Getafe although unquestionably they are still far the stronger side and they are heavy favourites to win this. Getafe have had some impressive recent results though and have also taken 7 points from their last 3 games, scoring 7 goals without conceding.

9 of their 10 points and 9 of their 10 goals have come at home though and they’ve tended to employ a much more cautious approach on the road perhaps scarred by the memories of some heavy away defeats last season.

Sevilla are likely to have too much more for them here and at 7/5 they look really good value to win this without conceding.

They won 8 matches to nil at home in the league last year including a 2-0 win over Getafe and it is surely only a matter of time before they turn the Sanchez Pizjuan into a fortress again. Therefore consider backing a repeat 2-0 scoreline at 6/1 and a 3rd straight home win for Sevilla.
