Arambarri punishes Elche's defense in an epic goalkeeper duel
Skip It Futmetrix Score: 24/100. A 56th-minute strike from M. Arambarri decides a contest where defensive intensity eclipsed attacking creativity, with David Soria and Iñaki Peña staging a reflexes masterclass that underscores the stakes of this mid-table battle.
Goalkeepers hold the fortress
Getafe arrived at Coliseum Alfonso Pérez hungry for three points after a winning run. Bordalás' side controlled the tempo from kickoff, though without overwhelming force. Kiko Femenia delivered the surgical assist in the 56th that allowed Arambarri to convert the night's only goal. It was a lethal blow in an afternoon where both defenses erected near-impenetrable walls.
Peña sustains Elche in the storm
Elche dominated possession with an overwhelming 66%, yet their ball control failed to translate into genuine danger. Iñaki Peña was Elche's guardian angel, making four decisive saves that preserved balance until Arambarri shattered the spell. Escribá's men fired nine shots, but only four troubled the keeper—evidence of attacking imprecision that proved costly.
Iron defense, fragile attack
Defensive intensity was the true protagonist. Getafe launched 15 attempts (6 on target), while Elche barely manufactured threats with their nine efforts. Allan Nyom was Getafe's defensive rock, orchestrating the back four with surgical precision. Both keepers made four saves apiece, turning their nets into fortresses. With 24 combined shots and only 10 on target, the match reflected two sides prioritizing defensive solidity over attacking risk.
Key Questions
What made Iñaki Peña the Man of the Match?
His four critical saves kept Elche in the contest for 56 minutes, showcasing elite reflexes against relentless Getafe pressure.
How did Getafe break the balance?
Kiko Femenia delivered a perfect assist for Arambarri's 56th-minute conversion, capitalizing on accumulated pressure.
Why couldn't Elche capitalize on their possession dominance?
With 66% possession but only nine shots, Elche lacked attacking clarity against Getafe's resolute defensive structure.
How is the Futmetrix Score calculated?
The Futmetrix Score (0-100) combines multiple factors: match intensity, competitive balance, stakes importance, and entertainment value to help you decide if this match is worth watching.
Getafe eyes European consolidation as Elche battles for consistency
Worth Watching Futmetrix Score: 58/100. A mid-tier Stakes encounter where Getafe's surging Form clashes with Elche's alarming inconsistency, creating a tactical Balance that favors the home side's confidence.
The Setup
Getafe arrives with back-to-back victories (WLLWW) that keep them in seventh place with 20 points—within touching distance of European qualification. Their defensive fragility (15 goals conceded) has stabilized recently, anchored by goalkeeper David Soria's exceptional form: 24 saves across five matches at 4.8 per game. Elche presents the opposite picture: just three wins in 14 games and a catastrophic Form streak (LDDLL) that leaves them 11th with 16 points. The Balance tilts toward the hosts, but desperation can be dangerous.
Key Battle
David Soria (Getafe) vs Aleix Febas (Elche). Soria's shot-stopping prowess (7.7 average rating) has become Getafe's defensive cornerstone—he'll face relentless pressure from Febas, Elche's most threatening attacking outlet. Febas, with one goal in five matches and a 7.5 rating, represents Elche's only reliable spark. The duel between Soria's reflexes and Febas's positioning in transition moments will define the match's rhythm.
Our Prediction
Getafe dominate possession early, pressing high in the middle third and exploiting their defensive organization. Elche emerge with intensity in the opening 15 minutes, hunting for a shock goal. The hosts break through before halftime with a composed finish. Second-half Elche press desperately but Getafe seal victory on the counter—Soria's distribution launching the decisive attack. Final score: Getafe 2-1 Elche.
Key Questions
Should I watch this match?
Yes. Getafe chasing Europe, Elche fighting relegation fears. Form disparity creates tactical intrigue and genuine stakes.
What's the predicted outcome?
Getafe 2-1 Elche. Home side's superior Form converts chances; Elche's late goal insufficient to salvage a point.
Where are Getafe and Elche in the league table?
Getafe seventh with 20 points; Elche 11th with 16. A four-point gap reflecting their contrasting Form trajectories.
What is Elche's current form?
Dire: LDDLL across five matches. Only three wins in 14 games. Urgently need a result to arrest their downward spiral.
Who is the in-form player to watch?
Aleix Febas (Elche): 1 goal in 5 matches, 7.5 rating. Elche's primary attacking threat and key to their offensive hopes.
How is the Futmetrix Score calculated?
The Futmetrix Score (0-100) combines multiple factors: match intensity, competitive balance, stakes importance, and entertainment value to help you decide if this match is worth watching.
