Getafe 1-0 RCD Espanyol

Current streaks

Recent form

Getafe

Getafe's recent form has been mixed, with the team struggling to find consistency in their performances. The Madrid-based side have managed just two wins in their last six matches, both of which came against lower-league opposition in the Copa del Rey. In La Liga, Getafe have suffered three consecutive defeats, failing to score in any of these matches. Their position of 17th in the league table reflects their poor run of form, with the team averaging less than a goal per game in their last six outings. Defensively, Getafe have been relatively solid, conceding only 0.67 goals per game and keeping three clean sheets during this period. However, their attacking output has been a concern, with 83% of their recent matches featuring under 2.5 goals. Interestingly, none of Getafe's last six games have seen both teams score, highlighting their struggles in front of goal.

RCD Espanyol

RCD Espanyol's recent form has been rather inconsistent, with the team struggling to find their footing in La Liga. They are currently languishing in 18th position, having won just two of their last six matches across all competitions. The Periquitos have been particularly vulnerable defensively, conceding an average of two goals per game over this period. Their recent 4-1 defeat to Girona stands out as a particularly high-scoring affair, highlighting their defensive frailties. On a more positive note, Espanyol have shown some attacking prowess, scoring an average of 1.5 goals per game and notching an impressive 4-0 victory against San Tirso in the Copa del Rey. However, their inability to keep clean sheets, managing just one in their last six matches, remains a concern. The team's tendency towards high-scoring matches is evident, with 67% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals.

Recent home/away form

Getafe

Getafe have shown mixed form at home, with their recent results reflecting a pattern of resilience rather than dominance. The team have managed two wins, three draws, and one loss in their last six home matches, demonstrating a solid defensive record with only four goals conceded (an average of 0.67 per game) and two clean sheets. However, their attacking output has been modest, scoring seven goals across these fixtures (1.17 per game). Notably, all six matches have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a tendency towards low-scoring affairs at their home ground. Despite their 17th position in the league, Getafe's home form suggests they are difficult to beat, with only one loss in this stretch. The team's ability to grind out results is evident, with half of their recent home games ending in draws, showcasing their competitiveness even if outright victories have been somewhat elusive.

RCD Espanyol

RCD Espanyol's recent away form has been dismal, with the team currently on a run of four consecutive away defeats across all competitions. Their only away victory in the last six matches came against lower-league opposition San Tirso in the Copa del Rey, where they scored an impressive four goals. However, their defensive frailties have been evident, conceding four goals on three separate occasions against Girona, Barcelona, and Athletic Club. Espanyol have struggled to keep clean sheets, managing only one in their last six away games, while their goal difference of -7 highlights their difficulties both in attack and defence. The team's propensity for high-scoring encounters is notable, with 67% of their recent away matches featuring over 2.5 goals, suggesting their games are often entertaining for neutral spectators, if not for Espanyol supporters.
