Alavés vs Getafe: Prediction, Betting Tips and Match Preview

Alavés open their LaLiga campaign at home against Getafe, and this feels like the moment for the hosts to hit the ground running. I’m backing them to mark the season opener with a win, and the price on a home victory looks right to me. Good luck.

Alavés and Getafe look evenly matched heading into this LaLiga clash, and I see little separating them on the pitch. My call is a 1:1 draw — a result that feels right for two sides of similar quality, with the 2.85 odds offering solid value for a cautious pick.

Alavés and Getafe meet in LaLiga, and Getafe's matches are notorious for yellow cards stacking up. That pattern makes Over 4.5 cards at 1.52 the clear play here.

Let’s be direct here: Getafe will score more than one goal. The new LaLiga season kicks off with Alavés against Getafe, and I’m backing the visitors to put at least two past their hosts. Over the last few campaigns, Getafe have consistently found the net against Alavés—last season they walked away with a 2-0 win on this very ground. That pattern is too strong to ignore, and at odds of 3.05, I’m locking it in.

Alavés and Getafe open their LaLiga campaign at Mendizorroza on August 16, and the recent history between them is clear: Getafe have won four of the last six meetings, with Alavés taking just one. The last head-to-head, back in February at this same venue, finished 2-0 to the visitors. Alavés come in after a strong preseason with four straight wins and only two goals conceded, while Getafe tested themselves against top opposition and let in seven over six friendlies. Alavés have struggled against this Getafe side, especially in the visitors' last two away matches, which both went their way.

That combination of sturdy defending on both sides and Alavés' determination to finally get a result against an uncomfortable opponent suggests the game won't stay goalless. I'm backing over 1.5 goals at 1.70.

Getafe managed to keep the score low in three-quarters of their matches last season, but Alavés isn't the kind of opponent you can just contain inside your own box. The visitors usually look sluggish on the road, especially early in the campaign when the squad isn't settled and the transfer window is still open. The hosts know full well that their rivals prefer a slow tempo, so they’ll look to dictate the game with crosses and set pieces. Backed by a fired-up home crowd, Alavés has every reason to grab three points. I expect the Basques to exploit Madrid’s lack of pace and grind out a win to kick off the season.

PREDICTION: Alavés to win at 2.35.
