Spain Cup: Getafe vs SantanderThe performance they gave in the cup proved that they deserve to be in the finals. But only one team can win and the outcome of this match will greatly decide which of the teams will have more chance to move on to the finals. Getafe are in a sequence of two triumphs and they will definitely give their best to beat Santander.
First AEK, now Real…
Although the status on the standings is not too convincing, Getafe play great this season. On Sunday the club from the suburbs of Madrid became the first team to beat Real Madrid at Santiago Bernabeu this season. Before this match they eliminated AEK in UEFA Cup knock-out stage and now they are about to play the first leg of Copa Del Rey semifinals. They will host Santander at Alfonso Perez, who they already met this season in the championship. Azulones were defeated 2:0 but considering that they play much better at home makes them favourites in this match. Granero won’t be in the team and Tena and Cotelo are still not sure.
Racing chasing the ticket for Europe in the cup
Similarly to their rivals, Racing play quite good this season. They beat |Almeria in the last Primera game and this will boost their confidence before this semifinal match. They haven’t been defeated away in Copa Del Rey and the interesting thing is that they drew all three matches. They always played better at home against Getafe but the Cup is one of the ways to reach Europe and the players will definitely give their best to remain undefeated. This way they would gain fine chance to move on to the finals if they win in the rematch. Lopez, Smolarek and Gutierrez recovered from injuries and they will be able to play.
Betting Verdict
Both teams want the finals and they definitely won’t rush too much in this match. Getafe will have to attack in the second half because a draw wouldn’t suit them, Let alone defeat. Getafe showed on several occasions this season that they can play quite good at home so our choice would be betting on them. Previous duels of these rivals always brought many goals so we believe that this will be the case now.
