Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Sevilla will look to recover from a 1-0 loss to Mallorca when they take on Getafe at their Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Saturday afternoon. Los Sevillanos extended their winless run to nine games in the national championship and, as a result, boss Diego Alonso lost his job. Interim managers Cristian Toro and Marco Tamarit are eager to help the team regain a much-needed confidence and we are positive that the hosts will leave their hearts on the field. Keep in mind, though, that all Jesus Navas, Mariano Diaz, Marcos Acuna, Fernando Dodi Lukebakio, and Joan Jordan are sidelined with injuries.
Los Azulones, on the other hand, did well to beat Valencia thanks to Borja Mayoral’s late goal in the suburbs of Madrid, but we are tempted to put our money on Sevilla this time out as they want this win more than the capital club. Domingos Duarte is banned for the visiting side, while all Jose Angel Carmona, Mauro Arambarri, and Enes Unal remain in the treatment room.
Highlighted Player (Djené):
A central defender who can equally be deployed as a right-back, Djene Dakonam has emerged as one of the most influential Getafe players in the 2017/18 season. His road to prominence was a long one, however, and Djene had to bide his time in order to be recognized for quality he undoubtedly possesses. Dapaong-born Togolese international, Djene Dakonam made his first football steps as a youth member of Etoile Filante.
Spells in Benin and Cameroon with Tonnerre d’Abomey and Coton Sport, respectively, saw Djene Dakonam grab attention of Alcoron, who moved in to bring him to Spain in 2014. During two years in Spain Djene Dakonam made 59 league appearances before moving to Sint-Truidense. It was in Belgium that Djene Dakonam proved his defensive versatility and Getafe came calling the very next year, in 2017.
Djene proved to be an instant hit with the Azulones and is hoping a move to one of Europe’s biggest clubs will not be too far away for him. The likes of Arsenal and Tottenham have been sniffing around him during the summer transfer window in 2018 but were ultimately scared off by his £31 million release clause.
