Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Coliseum Alfonso Perez will host Friday’s La Liga game between Getafe and Levante, the two bottom-table sides. Los Azulones are only four points clear of the relegation zone, meaning that this game is of big importance for the capital club. The good news for the hosts is that duo Sandro Ramirez – Enes Unal is back after they missed the last league match through suspension.
Los Levantinos, on the other hand, are having a season to forget, with the team collecting only 11 points in total to date. The rock-bottom side are nine points behind the safe zone, and given their anything but good display in a 2-0 loss to Cadiz, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. Jose Campana is back from suspension, while Levante head coach Alessio Lisci will have to watch the game from the stands following his sending off in the loss to the Yellow Submarine.
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.
