Real Sociedad vs. Getafe: Match Prediction
This match brings together opponents whose games this season have been the lowest-scoring. Both teams are among the lowest scorers in La Liga, yet their defensive play is second only to Atlético. It seems unlikely that anything will change in this head-to-head, as it's improbable the teams will alter their tactical approaches.
Real Sociedad has not conceded at home in four consecutive La Liga matches. However, the San Sebastián side has only managed to score more than one goal in one of their last six home league games. Las Palmas has failed to score in 5 of their last 8 away league matches. Additionally, the Canary Islands team has not conceded more than one goal in 12 of their last 14 away La Liga matches.
Therefore, my prediction is Total under 2
