Prediction published on 1/16/25, 3:00 PM  by Tyler Doty | Modified on 1/17/25 at 4:37 AM in LaLiga Picks

Getafe, 15th in La Liga, are just 3 points clear of the relegation zone ahead of their clash with Barcelona, who are back on top. José Bordalas's side, who have the 3rd best defense in the league with just 16 goals conceded in 19 games, are likely to suffer defensively against La Liga's best attack, with 51 goals scored. In the league, Getafe, victorious on Wednesday at Pontevedra (0-1) in the King's Cup, have still conceded 1 goal in their last 3 games in the capital, against Atlético Madrid (1-0), Mallorca (0-1) and Las Palmas (1-2) on January 12th.

FC Barcelona have won all their matches in 2025, including 2 King's Cup qualifiers in Barbastro (0-4) and against Betis Sevilla (5-1) on Wednesday evening, and a triumph in the Spanish Super Cup after 2 convincing wins over Athletic Bilbao (2-0) and Real Madrid (5-2) in the final. With 16 goals scored in their last 4 outings, an average of 4 goals per game, the Catalan club are showing their attacking strength. The magical trio of Raphinha-Lamal-Lewandowski are no strangers to Barcelona's success, having scored 9 goals (3 each) of the Catalan club's 16 in 2025.
