Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Real Sociedad will be aiming to climb to the Conference League berth when they welcome Getafe to their Reale Arena on Sunday afternoon. La Real have been having their ups and downs of late and, no doubt, they are eager to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Valencia. As all Mikel Oyarzabal, Takefusa Kubo, and Luka Sucic return to the starting XI, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the hosts.
Los Azulones, on the other hand, did well to hold Barcelona to a 1-1 draw at the weekend, but given their difficulties on the road, home win should definitely be considered. It has to be noted that Getafe have suffered three defeats in the previous four away games in La Liga. Defender Allan Nyom remains on the sidelines with injury, while midfielder Mauro Arambarri will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
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.
