Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Getafe play host to Las Palmas at their Coliseum Alfonso Perez in the Primera Division round 27. Los Azulones are eager to bounce back from a massive 4-0 loss to Barcelona and their fine home record is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of Saturday’s clash. Experienced forward Jaime Mata is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while both Djene Dakonam and Omar Alderete are banned for the match.
La Union Deportiva, on the other hand, played out a 1-1 draw with Osasuna in their last league match and yet another close encounter is on the cards in the suburbs of Madrid. Taking everything into account, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. Alex Suarez is banned for the visiting side, while Maximo Perrone returns to the starting XI after serving a one-game suspension at the weekend.
