Getafe welcome Cadiz to the Coliseum Alfonso Perez on Saturday, in what could turn out to be a crucial battle towards the bottom of the 2022-23 LaLiga standings.
The hosts are unbeaten in their last four games, without defeat since a narrow loss to Real Madrid at the start of October, while the visitors will arrive in the capital off the back of an incredible 3-2 win over Atletico Madrid.
We say: Getafe 1-0 Cadiz
A game between the two sides with the lowest expected goals figures in the league, it would not be a surprise to see a low-scoring affair to kickstart Saturday's LaLiga action.
Nonetheless, with the firepower of Enes Unal and the home advantage, we expect Los Azulones to get the job done and to extend their encouraging unbeaten streak to five.

Real Valladolid welcome bottom side Elche to the Estadio Jose Zorrilla on Saturday, looking to make it three wins in a row in front of their own fans.
Pucela's mini-bubble was burst on the weekend with a 2-0 away defeat to Osasuna, while the visitors missed a late penalty at Getafe to leave them six points adrift at the foot of the early LaLiga standings.
We say: Real Valladolid 2-1 Elche
Things are becoming increasingly desperate for Elche, who have two games against recently-promoted sides to come before the World Cup break.
Pacheta's side are riding a wave of home form at the moment though, and while we can see the struggling visitors scoring at the Jose Zorrilla on Saturday, we think that they will struggle to hold on for a result.

Celta Vigo vs. Osasuna (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Celta Vigo welcome Osasuna to Balaidos on Saturday, in a tough first assignment since the sacking of Eduardo Coudet in midweek.
The Galicians have one point from their last five games following a 3-1 defeat to Almeria last time out, while the visitors are unbeaten in their last three, having swept aside Real Valladolid on Sunday.
We say: Celta Vigo 1-1 Osasuna
Celta have been playing some good attacking football in recent weeks but have been let down by their finishing, along with an incredibly leaky defence.
Carvalhal will not have had long to work with the team, but we are expecting to see a response from his players against an Osasuna side with just three goals scored away from home this campaign.

In the wake of Gerard Pique's shocking retirement news, Barcelona welcome newly-promoted Almeria to Camp Nou, as they look to keep the pressure on Real Madrid at the top.
The Catalan giants released their Champions League frustrations on Viktoria Plzen in midweek, while the visitors recorded their fourth victory of the season last weekend, with a 3-1 win over Celta Vigo.
We say: Barcelona 4-1 Almeria
Boasting the best home record in the league and desperate to keep up with Real Madrid, it is hard to look past a comfortable Barcelona win here.
Almeria can cause Xavi's side problems going forward but will surely struggle to contain the impressive attacking options that have made light work of many a LaLiga defence already this campaign.
