Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Real Betis will be looking to climb to the Conference League berth when they take on Getafe in the La Liga round 23. Los Beticos quickly bounced back from a 4-2 loss to Real Betis, with the team beating Mallorca thanks to Sergi Altimira’s goal and you should know that they are eyeing their seventh home win of the process. Both Abde Ezzalzouli and Chadi Riad are back from suspension, while all Youssouf Sabaly, Marc Bartra, Guido Rodriguez, Ayoze Perez, and Aitor Ruibal Garcia remain in the recovery room.
The capital club, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-0 win over Granada. Los Azulones have recorded only one win on the road this term, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the home team. Midfielder Yellu Santiago limped off with injury in the last league match, with Gaston Alvarez likely to step up.
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.
