Eleven Sports 2, from 7pm Thursday

Alaves v Getafe7pm
Alaves have won three and drawn one of their four games since an opening 3-0 defeat at Barcelona but visitors Getafe are also competing well against the non-elite clubs in Spain.

Their only defeats have come against Real and Atletico Madrid – they've kept clean sheets in their other three outings in La Liga – and a tight contest could be in store.

Recommendation
0-0 at half-time
1pt 5-4 general

Key stat
Alaves have conceded only one first-half goal in five league games this season.

Girona v Real Betis9pm
Gerard Pique's equaliser denied Girona a famous win over ten-man Barcelona on Sunday but that 2-2 draw took their tally to a respectable eight points after five matches.

Real Betis's first two away games both ended goalless but their league matches last term averaged 3.18 goals per game and this should be more entertaining.

Recommendation
Both teams to score
2pts 8-11 Betfair

Key stat
Cristhian Stuani has scored five of Girona's last six goals in La Liga.
