Two teams that have been unexpectedly good in the La Liga will lock horns on Friday, when Granada will play host to Getafe after the restart. Granada are sitting really close to the top-seven spots that lead to European competitions next season, while Getafe are sitting at the 5th spot, just one point behind the Champions League spots.

Granada (11-11-5) were in tremendous shape before the break, as they were on a five-match undefeated streak (3-0-2). They are sitting at the 9th spot of the league table with 38 points, just four behind Valencia and the 7th spot that leads to the Europa League qualifiers next season. They have been really good at home so far in the season (8-3-2) where they have the 2nd best defense with just 8 conceded goals. They have only lost to Levante, Sevilla and Real Sociedad at home, but did beat Barcelona by 0-2 and held Atletico Madrid to a 1-1 draw.

Getafe (13-7-7) are having a tremendous season so far, in multiple competitions, as they had also reached the Europa League round of 16 after eliminating Ajax. They were about to face Inter Milan before the outbreak, but they have also done a great job in the La Liga. Getafe are sitting at the 5th spot of the league table with 46 points, just as many as Real Sociedad above them. The top-four spots lead to the Champions League next season, so Getafe will be really interested for the prestige and the money that come with it. Getafe have also been quite competitive on the road so far (6-4-3), where just four of their 13 away matches have featured Over 2.5 Goals.

Getafe did a great job to beat Granada by 1-3 at home in the reverse fixture, but that was their first win over Granada in the last six matches (1-3-2). Granada have been better as hosts against Getafe over the years (3-1-1) and they have been excellent as hosts this season. Going with Granada to cover the spread here, while I wouldn’t be surprised by a low-scoring match here.
