Command Analysis

Orihuela

Current form
Orihuela is one of the historic clubs in the Valencia region, which has played mostly in the lower divisions of Spanish football throughout its history. The team is trying to consolidate its position at this level, but successes are rare. In the current championship, Orihuela is at the bottom of its division, facing difficulties in attack and instability in defense. In the first stage of the Spanish Cup, the Yellow-Blues defeated Crevillent with a minimum score thanks to a goal by Torres at the end of the match. This victory was an important achievement for the club and allowed them to play a more famous opponent, which is an excellent opportunity for the players to prove themselves.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team main playmaker Torres is out of the game (ankle injury).
Interesting trends for betting
- Orihuela have failed to win three of their last five competitive matches
- The team is conceding an average of two goals per game this season.
Probable lineup: Castro - Fernandez, Pastor, Sanchez, Jimenez - Lopez, Ramirez, Gallego, Pineda - Ruiz, Perez

Getafe

Current form
Getafe is confidently playing the current season, being in the middle of the La Liga table. The team shows a stable game in defense and is able to effectively use moments near the opponent goal, which makes it an inconvenient opponent for any opponent. In the last round of the championship, the charges of Jose Bordalas played a draw with Cadiz (1:1), having missed out on victory at the end. Despite this, the "blues" maintain good form and approach the match in the Spanish Cup with the attitude to go further without unnecessary losses. Bordalas will probably use rotation, giving the reserves a chance to prove themselves against a representative of the lower division.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mayoral (calf injury) and Duarte (disqualification) are out of the game.
Interesting trends for betting
- Getafe are unbeaten in six of their last seven matches in all competitions
- The team has conceded fewer than two goals in four consecutive games.
Probable lineup: Sorriya - Damian Suarez, Djené, Aldair, Alvarez - Arruambarrena, Maksimovic, Angela - Portillo, Jimenez, Latasa

1.65Tip and bets
Today we are on the side of the visitors, who represent La Liga and have a noticeable advantage in class, experience and level of preparation. Even taking into account the possible rotation, Getafe remains the favorite of the match due to the depth of the squad and the quality of the game in attack. It will be difficult for the hosts to contain the onslaught, especially if the visitors find their rhythm in the first minutes. We believe that the difference in class will lead to a confident victory for the Blues, and an outcome with an advantage of at least two goals looks very likely.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Getafe and we bet on it with odds of 2.05
Bet on total
Today we expect a more cautious game from the hosts, who, despite their aggressive play, will have to pay attention to the defense to avoid a heavy defeat. Getafe, in turn, can control the game, but are unlikely to take risks, knowing that there are many important matches in La Liga ahead. Most likely, we will see a low-scoring match with few goals, especially if Orihuela can withstand the pressure.
Forecast - total under 3.5 goals and we bet on it for 1.85
Bet on corners
We expect both teams to try to control the ball and it is unlikely that the match will be open with many attacks. However, some set pieces and fouls in the center of the field may lead to more corners than usual.
Forecast - total corners over 7.5 and we bet on it with odds of 1.55
