Check out our predictions of the day for Barcelona vs. Getafe
Prediction 1: Barcelona x Getafe / Barcelona to win
It would not be shocking if Getafe came out on top on Saturday since they possess all the necessary qualities to secure a victory. However, Barcelona is in fine form, so the defending champions will pull off the upset and win in front of their home fans.
Prediction 2: Barcelona x Getafe / Over 2.5 goals
Recent data strongly suggests that there will be more than 2.5 total goals in the Barcelona vs. Getafe match. Recent matches have seen 32 goals scored by Barcelona at home and 20 goals scored away by Getafe. The total goal-to-rebound ratio is 21.385%. While Barcelona has put up 32 goals and let in 21, Getafe has put up 20 and 24 in their previous 15 outings.
Barcelona vs. Getafe will be another low-scoring matchup, given how their past meetings have ended. But the hosts are well and should have more than enough for their guests.
Prediction 3: Barcelona x Getafe / Greenwood to score anytime
On the counterattack, Mason Greenwood is famously lightning-fast and pinpoint precise. Because of his skill in finding openings and assisting other strikers in scoring, he will provide an ongoing danger to Barça’s defenses.
