Leganes vs Getafe prediction: SPAIN: LaLiga betting tips on match 2025-03-01 13:00.
[p]Without a win across their last five La Liga games (D2, L3), and failing to score in four of those, Leganés begin this round 16th and just one point above the relegation zone. Goalscoring has been an issue all season, with Leganés failing to score in a joint-league high 11 games, while their six scoring blanks at home is an outright league-high ahead of the round. [/p]
[p]There are encouraging signs in front of goal for Los Pepineros though, as they have scored five times in their last two home games, but six goals conceded in the process highlights that Borja Jiménez’s side have issues at the other end of the pitch. An immediate return to the Segunda Division looms if they can’t remedy their defensive woes, but having conceded 3+ goals in five of their last seven home games highlights the scale of the task.[/p]
[p]This weekend’s visitors Getafe are unbeaten across their last three trips to the Estadio Municipal de Butarque (W2, D1) and have scored six times in total across those games. Their recent away form is even better, winning each of their last four La Liga games on the road since the turn of the year, a 100% record shared by only Brentford, Crystal Palace and PSG in Europe’s traditional top-five leagues![/p]
[p]With no home win since December, Getafe’s away form has been crucial to their recent rise up the table, which sees them start this gameweek in 14th place and only five points away from Rayo Vallecano in the final European position. It was the 2019/20 season when the Deep Blue Ones last played in Europe, but with only two goals conceded across their last four away league games, they could be closer to a return by Sunday evening.[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Dani Raba has been involved in 75% of Leganés’ home league goals in 2025, converting two penalties against Alavés and assisting Matija Nastasić in the win over Atlético Madrid. Borja Mayoral scored in the reverse fixture in September and is targeting a goal in three successive La Liga games for the first time since December 2023.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Leganés have conceded after half-time in six of their last seven home games.[/p]
