Getafe vs Cadiz CF prediction: SPAIN: LaLiga betting tips on match 2023-11-05 20:00.
Getafe find themselves in the middle of an intriguing run which has seen them draw each of their last five La Liga (LL) outings. It’s a streak that sees the hosts enter this latest round trapped in no man’s land between the European places and the relegation zone, a similar position to where they finished last campaign after narrowly escaping the drop by just two points.
Much more improvement across the board is still required in order to finish higher in the standings this time around, especially in the scoring department given that the hosts have returned just 13 goals through their opening 11 LL matches. A 12-0 win in the Copa del Rey in midweek will have boosted Getafe’s spirits at least, while a visit from Cádiz could prove welcome given that the Azulones have lost just one of the previous six LL H2Hs (W2, D3).
The visitors travel in their own poor form too, failing to win any of their past seven LL outings (D3, L4), whilst they only managed to get past fifth tier opposition CF Badalona via a penalty shootout in the cup in midweek. Much like their opposition here, Cádiz have really struggled in front of goal so far, failing to score in five of their 11 LL matches – the joint second worst tally in the competition.
The Yellow Submarine have additionally found the going extremely tough on the road, returning just one point from their five trips in 2023/24. When adding last season into the equation, Cádiz are now winless in ten away from home in LL (D3, L7), failing to score in six of those matches, so another road trip seemingly presents problems for Sergio González’s men.
Players to watch: Borja Mayoral remains Getafe’s top LL scorer this season with five goals to his name, the last four of which came before half-time. Just as likely to net early here is Cádiz’s Chris Ramos as his three LL strikes this campaign have also all come before the interval.
Hot stat: Four of Getafe’s last seven LL matches have featured a red card.
