Match Analysis

Both teams come into this encounter with contrasting recent performances. Leganes have struggled in their last three matches, failing to secure a win. They suffered two away defeats against Sociedad and Valencia, conceding a total of five goals without reply, and managed a high-scoring draw at home against Alaves. Their defensive vulnerabilities are evident, having conceded an average of 2.4 goals per match in their last five games, while scoring just 1.2 goals on average. Getafe, on the other hand, have shown resilience and a strong defense, winning two of their last three games. They achieved victories against Girona and Alaves, both away from home, and narrowly lost to Betis at home. The Madrid-based side has demonstrated defensive solidity, conceding only 0.6 goals per game in recent fixtures, and keeping three clean sheets in their last five matches. Their attacking output, averaging 1.6 goals per game, has also been more consistent compared to Leganes.

Final Prediction

Getafe's recent defensive form and ability to grind out results give them a slight advantage in this matchup. Their capacity to keep clean sheets and capitalize on scoring opportunities could prove decisive against a Leganes side struggling defensively. A key factor to watch during the game will be Getafe's defensive organization, as they aim to neutralize Leganes' attacking threats and secure an important away victory.
