Match Analysis
Recent performances of both teams have not been particularly impressive. Vallecano has managed only one point from their last three encounters, including a draw against Valencia and losses against Ath Madrid and Ath Bilbao. Their struggle is evident in the advanced metrics as well, with an average of 0.8 goals scored per game and 1.8 goals conceded. Getafe's recent form hasn't been much better, having lost all three of their last matches against Real Madrid, Espanol, and Las Palmas. However, Getafe has shown slightly better attacking statistics, averaging 1.6 goals per match in their last five outings, while conceding only 0.8 on average.
Both teams' expected goals (xG) metrics suggest that Getafe has been more efficient in creating scoring opportunities with an average of 1.198 xG compared to Vallecano's 0.972. Defensively, Getafe also appears more robust, allowing an expected 0.918 goals per game, which is more favorable compared to Vallecano's 1.612. Despite both teams having managed only one clean sheet in their recent five games, Getafe's slightly better defensive and offensive metrics could play a pivotal role in this match.
Final Prediction
Getafe's edge in this matchup comes from their superior recent form in terms of goal-scoring and defensive solidity as suggested by their advanced metrics. Vallecano's inability to convert chances consistently and their defensive vulnerabilities make them the underdogs in this contest. A key factor to watch during the game will be Getafe's ability to capitalize on their better xG and defensive prowess, which could be decisive in securing a much-needed victory.
