Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Monday’s football game between Elche and Getafe will bring down the curtain on day 12 of the new La Liga campaign. Los Franjiverdes did well to hold Espanyol to a 2-2 draw at the weekend, but that did not help them escape the rock-bottom position in the standings. Elche are still eyeing their first win of the season, and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field.
There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of Getafe. Los Azulones, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their five-game winless run in the Spanish top flight. Considering that the capital club will go for a win as well, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Important midfielder Carles Alena is back from suspension, while defender Fabrizio Angileri should miss the Elche game with injury.
