Match Preview
Getafe enters this clash missing key striker Borja Mayoral which is a massive blow for Bordalás. Without him their attack looks thin averaging just 2.64 shots on target at home. Mauro Arambarri will need to step up from midfield to provide some goal threat.
Defensively the Azulones remain stubborn conceding only 0.82 goals per home match. They rely on a high foul count to disrupt play averaging over 15 fouls. Djené and Domingos Duarte will lead a back five that is very difficult to break down.
Still their home form is a worry as they sit near the bottom of the home standings. Scoring just 18 goals in 23 games overall highlights their creative struggle. Can Luis Vázquez find a way through a Villarreal defense that often leaves gaps?
Villarreal is flying high in 4th place thanks to a clinical attack led by Alberto Moleiro. Moleiro has 9 goals this season averaging 0.53 per 90 minutes. They are very efficient on the road sitting 4th in the away standings with 1.7 PPG.
Marcelino might be without Gerard Moreno who is doubtful for this trip to the Coliseum. If he misses out Georges Mikautadze should start after scoring 6 times already. Villarreal has seen over 1.5 goals in 100 percent of their away league matches.
That said the Yellow Submarine struggles with discipline receiving an average of 3.4 cards away. They also win very few corners on their travels with an average of just 2.7. It is interesting to see if these factors influence Professional LaLiga Predictions today.
Marcelino García Toral is set to celebrate his 200th league match as Villarreal manager against Getafe, his statistically favorite opponent. Throughout his career, the Asturian coach has secured 15 victories against the Azulones, a personal record shared with Real Sociedad. A win this weekend would make Getafe his most-defeated rival, further cementing his historic legacy as the coach with the most games and wins in Villarreal’s history.

Prediction
Under 9.5 Corners @1.63
Getafe vs Villarreal is expected to be a cagey affair with very few chances created from wide areas. Looking at the numbers 3 of the last 5 home games for Getafe stayed under 9.5 corners. They average 4.73 corners won which is decent but they rarely concede many. Their defensive structure forces play inside rather than allowing crosses from the flanks.
Villarreal contributes even less to the corner count when they travel away from home. Statistics show that 4 of their last 5 away fixtures ended with under 9.5 corners. They average a league low 2.7 corners won on the road. With both sides focusing on tactical discipline the total number of set pieces from the corner flag should remain very low in this match.
