Getafe vs Real Sociedad Prediction & Betting Tips (9 January)

Getafe no longer wins but had the merit of avoiding a fourth successive defeat in the league last weekend by snatching a nice point from the draw at Rayo Vallecano 1-1. Before the Christmas break, the Azulones were defeated by Bétis 4-0, a big defeat which followed the losses suffered against Burgos in the 1/16 final of the Copa del Rey 3-1, and in La Liga against Espanyol Barcelona 0-1 and Villarreal 2-0. In the rankings, El Geta occupies 10th place and is gradually losing ground in the top 6 qualifying for Europe. Badly in shape by occupying a sad 15th place with only two small points ahead of Valencia, first-relegation, Real Sociedad was still able to take a good point at home against Atlético Madrid last weekend 1-1 as part of the first poster of 2026.

Basques, away, remain on a parity score at poorly ranked Levante 1-1. In La Liga, they have not won for five days including three defeats in a row against Girona 1-2, Alaves 1-0 and at home for the reception of Villarreal 2-3. 

Borderlas (coach) sees trouble, particularly in the defensive sector with the suspensions of Djené and Dominguos Duarte. Added to this is the injury to the Moroccan Abqar (defender). The headaches don't stop there as top scorer Borja Mayoral remains injured. Davinchi is convalescing and will be missed just like A.Kamara (9 appearances in La Liga this season). Otherwise, in the middle, Mauro Arambarri (10 goals in La Liga last season) will be relevant, like the striker Liso (3 goals in La Liga) and the Cameroonians Neyou and Nyom (not selected for the CAN), both eligible to start in the eleven today. Within this Real Sociedad team, the suspended Gorrotxategi and Zubeldia will be back from suspension while Ruperez, Lebarbier, Beitia, Goti Lopez, Karrikaburu and summer midfield recruit Yangel Herrera are all in the infirmary (injured).

Long on the sidelines following an injury sustained during the September international break, Icelandic international Oskarsson is back (probably a replacement). Favorite scorer Mikel Oyarzabal (5 goals, 3 assists) will be there, as will Barrenetxea, Brais Mendez and former PSG players: Carlos Soler and Goncalo Guedes. The last city scored against Atlético last weekend. The probable line-ups for Getafe - Real Sociedad: Getafe: Soria - Femenia, Iglesias, Neyou, Nyom, Rico - Milla, Arambarri, Munoz - Liso, Sancris.Real Sociedad: Remiro - Aramburu, Martin, Zubeldia, Gomez - Soler, Gorrotxategi - Kubo, Mendez, Guedes - Oyarzabal.
