Match Of The 20th Round Of The La Liga Between Getafe And Valencia Will Take Place 18 january At Coliseum Alfonso Pérez. Getafe vs Valencia: prediction, betting odds and statistics.
Getafe
Getafe suffered a 1:2 defeat to Real Sociedad in the last round of the championship, conceding the decisive goal in the 96th minute. This loss was the fourth in the last five La Liga matches for the home side, with a goalless draw at Rayo Vallecano at the start of January (1:1) the only positive result. The team has not won in the La Liga since November, when the home side beat Elche 1:0. The ongoing winless run of five matches equals the club's worst sequence this season. The club sits 12th in the table, but the gap to the relegation zone is only 4 points.
- Since the start of the current La Liga season Getafe have scored a total of 15 goals, fewer only than Oviedo (9).
- The club's uncompromising home run in this competition lasts 6 matches (2 wins, 4 losses).
- No more than 2 goals were scored in 6 of the last 8 La Liga matches for the home side.
Potential Getafe Lineup (4-5-1)*
David Soria – Diego Rico, Juan Iglesias, Kiko Femenia, Allan Nyom – Mauro Arambarri, Adrian Liso, Luis Milla, Alejandro Mestanza, Javier Munoz – Mario Martin.
Defenders Djene and Domingos Duarte have returned from suspension. Defenders Abdel Abqar and Davinci, as well as forwards Borja Mayoral and Abu Kamara, are unavailable due to injury.
Valencia
Valencia have been unable to win in the La Liga for 6 matches, although the visitors have suffered only 2 defeats in their last 8 league games. Last week Carlos Corberan's side shared the points with Elche (1:1), marking the eighth draw in the current competition — the highest number alongside three other clubs. Across the first half of the La Liga season Valencia have won only 3 of 19 matches, and notably all rare victories have come at home. The team is 18th in the table, but the deficit to rivals is minimal — the standings can change at any moment.
- Valencia have conceded in 6 consecutive La Liga matches.
- The club's scoring run in this competition stretches to 8 matches.
- So far this La Liga season the visitors have conceded a total of 31 goals, with only Girona worse on this measure (34).
Potential Valencia Lineup (4-2-3-1)*
Stole Dimitrievski – Thierry Correia, Cesar Tarrega, Jose Manuel Copete, Jose Luis Gaya – Filip Ugrinic, Pepelu – Diego Lopez, Luis Rioja, Andre Almeida – Lucas Beltran.
Goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala, as well as defenders Thierry Correia and Moustapha Diakabi, are unavailable due to injury.

Getafe vs Valencia: Match Prediction
Getafe are going through a very difficult patch of the season. The last La Liga win came in November, and the home side have not won in 5 matches in this competition since then. The club suffers largely from low offensive output, but an equally important problem is regular defensive errors. Half of the La Liga season is already behind them, and Getafe have kept a clean sheet in just 4 of 19 matches. Defensive reliability is lacking even at Coliseum Alfonso Pérez — of the last eight league matches only one was a shutout.
Valencia have also not won for a long time in the La Liga, and in general their rare victories come with great difficulty. However, recently the visiting team has been losing less often, and when they do concede defeat they at least usually score. The team's scoring run in the La Liga has reached 8 matches. With no wins away this season, Valencia have found the net in 5 of their last 7 away league games. It is also worth noting that the visitors have scored in each of the last 4 personal meetings with Getafe in the Spanish championship.
The forecast suggests: Valencia will score — yes.
