Getafe vs Sevilla FC Preview

Getafe head into this game with high morale despite failing to win their last match.

They were impressive in that fixtures and could have brought home the three points if their goal was not wrongly ruled out for offside.

We expect Sevilla to rotate their team due to participation in the Champions League qualification in midweek and that could see Getafe get all the three points this time around.

Getafe have not lost any of their last 19 competitive games at home and look likely to stretch that run to 12 months.

Sevilla sealed their qualification into the group stages of the Champions League and many consider them a very solid side.

That could be true of their attack but their defence remains a huge problem for them as they have continued to concede goals far too easily.

They scored three and conceded the same amount of goals in their last two matches and this defensive lapse could be their undoing this match.

Eduardo Berizzo will be happy with their attacking display but their defence needs sorting out as they are not the most convincing side when they play away from home.

Sevilla have failed to win any of their last 6 league games away at Getafe and lost 4 of those fixtures.
