Real Betis vs Getafe prediction, preview, team news and more

Real Betis are back in action with another La Liga fixture this weekend as they take on Getafe at the Estadio Benito Villamarin on Sunday. Both teams have been inconsistent this season and will need to step up in this match.

Getafe are in 19th place in the La Liga standings at the moment and have endured a miserable season so far. The Madrid-based outfit has lost all its league games this season and has a point to prove in this game.

Real Betis, on the other hand, have recovered from a poor start to their campaign and are in eighth place in the league table. The Andalusian side eased past Osasuna last week and will want a similar result from this fixture.

Real Betis vs Getafe Head-to-Head

Getafe have a good record against Real Betis and have won eight games out of 20 matches played between the two teams. Real Betis have managed six victories against Getafe and can trouble their opponents on Sunday.

The previous meeting between the two teams took place in February this year and ended in a 1-0 victory for Real Betis. Borja Iglesias scored the winner on the day and will want to replicate his heroics this weekend.

He is a Barcelona fan and unsurprisingly, his favorite manager and players are Pep Guardiola and Andres Iniesta respectively. He admires the latter for his superhuman talent and his off-pitch demeanor, and his winning goal in Spain’s 2010 World Cup final win over the Netherlands left a lasting impact on Aditya.

The match-preview specialist believes that his ongoing five-year stint at Sportskeeda has given him the ability to identify the distinct line between emotional and fact-based articles, which separates him from other journalists. For him, fact-checking is the most integral part of his writing process and he only relies on authentic platforms for data.
