Getafe vs Racing Santander — Tips & Analysis

Racing Santander +0.5: Getafe are running on empty, and that is why we are with Racing. Getafe have had 3 days since a European game. Racing have had 7. Getafe are also missing Christantus Uche and Juanmi, and Kiko Femenia is suspended. That is three players gone from a team which only scores a goal a game. Getafe have won 7 and lost 6 of their last 14, and they let in less than a goal a game. They are stubborn when everything is calm. Their opener was not calm. They lost 0-3 at Alaves and barely created a chance. Racing Santander came up from the second tier and they score plenty. They score more than 2 goals a game, their games have 4 goals in them on average, and 11 of their last 14 had 3 or more goals. They have won 8 of their last 14 and already have a 2-2 tie with Villarreal on the board. A 1-1 is the most likely finish here, and that result does the job for us. There are two things to watch. Getafe are a different team at the Coliseum, where they have won 5 of 7 and let in less than a goal a game. Racing's big numbers were also built in the division below, so they may not carry into La Liga. We still want Racing with the head start.
