Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Sevilla will be looking to build on a 2-0 win over Eibar when they take on Getafe at their Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Saturday. Los Sevillanos aim to cement their spot in top four, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at los Azulones. Cut-price summer signing Papu Gomez did not make his debut at the weekend, but he should play some part in Saturday’s clash. All Rodriguez, Escudero, and Acuna are sidelined with injuries, while Vaclik should recover in time to face Getafe.
The capital club, on the other hand, failed to impress in a goalless draw. Getafe are not enjoying a season to remember, and given Sevilla’s performance in the triumph over los Armeros, home win should definitely be considered. Even though important defender Djene Dakonam is back from suspension for the visitors, we are tempted to put our money on the Andalusians.
