Getafe welcome last-placed Huesca to the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez in their La Liga round 19 fixture on Wednesday.

The hosts' 1-0 home win over Barcelona was the highlight of their season but since that famous win, they have recorded only two league victories.

Meanwhile, Huesca have just one win to their name this term so far and will be hoping to break their five-game winless run (4L,1D) in this match.

Getafe vs Huesca Prediction

Getafe and Huesca have struggled to score goals this term. Three of the hosts' 15 goals came just last week against Elche.

Though a lack of quality in the final third is a concern for both sides, the defensive solidity of Getafe makes them the favorite in this clash. They have conceded 18 goals this term, which is the fifth-lowest in the league.

This game will not be a high-scoring affair, but we expect Getafe to secure their first back-to-back wins since September.

Prediction: Getafe 1-0 Huesca
