Barcelona vs Getafe Prediction & Betting Tips (25 September)

FC Barcelona is rolling through the Spanish championship with an honorable record of six victories in six matches and with a disconcerting impression of ease for Hansi Flick's men who very clearly dominate each of their matches played. The only big downside at the start of the season for the Culers is their defeat in the Champions League on the first day of the league phase against Monaco at Louis II 2-1, not helped by the expulsion by Eric Garcia, it must be said. Sunday evening, traveling to Villarreal in the clash of the 6th day, the Blaugrana literally soiled the Yellow Submarine by slamming a manita 1-5. Barça has scored 22 goals in the space of 6 matches played, an average of 3.5 goals per match! In addition, the Catalans are 4 steps ahead of their main contender for final success, Real Madrid, reigning champion.

Last season, Getafe showed their fangs from the start by grabbing a maximum of points, notably 1 , against Barça during the 1st day 0-0. For the moment, still no trace of victory for the Azulones who recorded a fourth draw in La Liga last weekend against promoted Leganes 1-1. An important point all the same since El Geta remained on two consecutive losses in the elite against Real Bétis at Benito Villamarin 2-1 and still in Andalusia, against Sevilla FC a few days earlier 1-0. In the ranking, Getafe occupies the 18th spot, virtually relegated.

The infirmary was already very heavy in Barcelona, ​​it will be even more so with the arrival in the care of Ter Stegen, injured against Villarreal due to a very bad fall and who will miss the end of the season (8- 9 months off). The latter announced his desire to play again as quickly as possible but no risk will be taken by Flick's medical staff. He thus joins the unavailable De Jong (absent from the field since April), Araujo, Christensen, Olmo (recruit), Lopez (muscle relapse), and Marc Bernal, victim of a cruciate ligament rupture during the match against Rayo Vallecano end of August (also end of season). Note that the crack Gavi (middle) has resumed collective training but is not expected to play this evening and a return to the field could become official after the next international break. He is probably the best player in LaLiga ahead of Vinicius and Mbappé, Lamine Yamal only confirms the extent of his talent game after game. The young man has already scored 3 goals and 5 assists in the league and scored in the Champions League against Monaco.

Against Villarreal, Lewandowski scored a double and missed the hat-trick by hitting the post on a penalty (6 goals, 2 assists in La Liga all the same) while the resurgent Pablo Torre, ousted by Xavi, finds color with Flick (1 goal , 1 assist in 2 appearances in the league). Ferran Torres is expected to return from suspension.  There are much fewer problems to report at Getafe who will probably be without the unimportant Aberdin and Alvaro Rodriguez (on loan from Real Madrid for the season) who both remain injured. Having recently returned from his long injury, Mayoral (15 goals in the league last season) needs to regain his sensations and should not start as a starter. The task could be entrusted to the player on loan from Rennes, Yildirim, still not decisive with the pass or the goal this season.
