To suffer relegation to the Segunda several of the teams below them would have to win both of their remaining league games.
Getafe are unbeaten in their last four matches in the Spanish top-flight, although they have also picked up three straight draws in La Liga. Last time out, they held Osasuna to a 1-1 draw.
The Azulones have been difficult to beat on home soil in La Liga, as Getafe have lost just one of their last 13 home games in the Spanish top-flight. They have also kept clean sheets in four of their last five home matches in La Liga.
After such turmoil last summer and a poor start to their La Liga campaign, Barcelona can seal runners-up spot in the Spanish top-flight with a victory.
Xavi’s team is in good form, having won four of their last five matches in the Spanish top-flight after a 3-1 home win over Celta Vigo last time out. The win also saw the Blaugrana score at least two goals for a third straight league match.
The Catalan giants have been strong on their travels in La Liga, as they are currently unbeaten in their last 14 away matches in the league. Xavi’s team has also recorded six straight away wins in the Spanish top-flight.
Forebet predicts that Barcelona will record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to seal runners-up spot in La Liga.
