The starting lineup for each team in their previous match in this tournament is provided.
Las Palmas
The Canarians will start the new year with a four-match unbeaten streak in the league. The club defeated Barcelona and Valladolid with identical scores of 2-1, and also Espanyol in the previous round (1-0). There was also a goalless draw away against Real Sociedad. This successful run in the league allowed them to climb to 13th place and move seven points clear of the relegation zone.
Midfielder Viti Rosada will miss the game due to injury.
- The club has not lost in 7 of their last 9 Primera matches (6 wins and 1 draw).
- The number "1" has appeared in the final score in 5 of Las Palmas' last 6 home matches in La Liga.
- There was a draw in the first half in five of the Canarians' previous league games.
Getafe
The club from the suburbs of Madrid ended last year with two narrow 0-1 defeats. First, they lost away to Atletico, and then at home to Mallorca. In the last 10 league matches, Pepe Bordalas' side has only achieved two wins (3 draws and 5 losses). As a result, Getafe is 17th in the league table, just one point ahead of the nearest relegation zone rival. The club also has the worst attacking line in the Primera, having scored only 11 goals.
Defender Diego Rico will miss the match due to suspension.
- No more than two goals have been scored in Getafe's last 13 Primera matches.
- The club has failed to score in the first half of their last 10 away games in La Liga.
- One of the teams failed to score in seven of Getafe's previous league matches.
Las Palmas vs. Getafe: Match Prediction
I believe the bookmakers are mistaken in offering such high odds on the home team's victory. The Canarians are in great form, having lost only to Atletico and Mallorca in their last nine La Liga matches. During this stretch, they managed to defeat opponents like Girona, Rayo Vallecano, and Barcelona. Moreover, Las Palmas has won 3 of their last 4 home matches in La Liga.
Meanwhile, Getafe has won only three times this season. Their victories came against Valladolid, Espanyol, and Alaves – all of which are no higher than 16th in the league table. It is also important to note that the team has not won in their last 10 away matches in La Liga (2 draws and 8 losses). During this series, Getafe has scored only three goals. Therefore, with a slight safety net, I suggest the prediction – Las Palmas with a handicap (0).
