Valencia vs Getafe Prediction and Betting Tips | 9th March 2024
The 2023-24 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Getafe take on an impressive Valencia side in an important clash at the Estadio de Mestalla on Saturday.
Valencia vs Getafe Preview
Getafe are currently in 11th place in the La Liga standings and have been inconsistent so far this season. The Madrid-based outfit played out a 3-3 draw against Las Palmas last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
Valencia, on the other hand, are in ninth place in the league table at the moment and have improved after a poor start to the season. Los Che held Real Madrid to an admirable 2-2 draw in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.

Valencia vs Getafe Prediction
Valencia have shown marked improvement in recent months but have stuttered over the past week. Los Che have a good squad at their disposal and will need to work hard to put their poor form behind them.
Getafe have blown hot and cold this season but are capable of holding their own on their day. Valencia are the better team on paper, however, and should be able to win this game.
