At Coliseum Alfonso Pérez on 22 February 2026, Getafe host Sevilla in a La Liga encounter between two sides separated by only three points in the standings. Both teams have experienced inconsistent spells this season, yet recent developments suggest this clash could unfold differently from their earlier low-scoring trends.
Getafe endured a difficult stretch without a victory for eight consecutive rounds, but signs of revival have emerged. Back-to-back wins have lifted confidence, most notably the 2-1 home success against Villarreal in the previous round. Goals had been a persistent issue for the Madrid-based side, with a heavy lean toward tight, low-scoring matches. Indeed, nine of their 12 home games this season have finished under 2.5 goals. However, the recent attacking output indicates a team beginning to find rhythm in the final third, combining direct play with improved efficiency inside the box.
Prediction Overview: Over 1.5 Goals
While Getafe’s historical home pattern points toward caution, current momentum and Sevilla’s defensive instability make Over 1.5 Goals an appealing and realistic choice. Both teams have reasons to chase a positive result rather than settle for containment.
Sevilla sit three points behind their hosts and have struggled for consistency. They have recorded just one win in their last eight league matches, and that solitary victory came at home. Away from home, they have not tasted success in La Liga since September. Their most recent road outing ended in a heavy 4-1 defeat to Mallorca, highlighting ongoing defensive fragility. Interestingly, Sevilla’s last five matches have all featured goals at both ends, suggesting open patterns of play and a vulnerability that opponents can exploit.
Given Getafe’s improved scoring form and Sevilla’s defensive issues combined with their tendency to find the net despite setbacks, two goals in total appear a realistic baseline in this encounter.
