Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Getafe and Real Betis square off against each other at Coliseum Alfonso Perez in the La Liga round 34. Los Azulones aim to build on a 2-0 win over Celta Vigo, but the game against Real Betis will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side. Both Jaime Mata and Sabit Abdulai should miss out with injuries, while there are no fresh selection worries in the home team. Los Beticos, on the other hand, are high on spirits following the Copa del Rey triumph over Valencia.
The Andalusians aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, but beating Getafe on the road is easier said than done. A close encounter is on the cards in the suburbs of Madrid, and we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. Both Camarasa and Montoya remain in the treatment room, while Willian Jose is pushing for a start.
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.
