Getafe vs FC Lugano — Tips & Analysis

FC Lugano +0.75: Lugano just do not lose. They have won 16 and tied 3 of their last 19 games, with no defeats at all in that run. They have not lost by 2 or more goals once. That is the main reason we are with them at the Coliseum. Getafe make it awkward. They have not lost at home this season, winning four and tying three, and they let in less than a goal a game there. They also barely score, under a goal a game, and only 4 of their last 14 games had 3 or more goals. So the hosts will sit deep, slow everything down and make the visitors chase. Lugano have the players for that kind of night. They score more than 3 goals a game, have won their last five in a row, and beat Crvena Zvezda 3-2 in this competition. They sit 8th in the league phase table to Getafe's 15th. Getafe are badly short too, without Mangala, Juanmi, Zaid Romero, Azon and Uche, and Carvajal cannot play in this competition. A 1-1 is the likely finish here and that suits us. The warning is clear. A scrappy 1-0 for Getafe is exactly the kind of night their home record is built on. Lugano have not met many sides who defend as stubbornly as this one. We are still on the Swiss side.
