Monday's La Liga predictions including Granada vs. Real Betis

Getafe vs. Elche (Monday, 7.00pm)

Two teams hovering at the wrong end of the La Liga table will lock horns at Coliseum Alfonso Perez on Monday evening as Getafe welcome Elche.

Getafe have lost all three of their league fixtures at the start of the 2021-22 campaign to sit 19th in the division, while Elche are 15th with two points to show from their opening three matches.

We say: Getafe 1-1 Elche

We are finding it incredibly difficult to separate the two sides here taking everything into consideration. Both teams have put in some strong performances despite their disappointing totals, and we can see the pair playing out a low-scoring draw in a tight contest.

Granada vs. Real Betis (Monday, 9.00pm)

Two teams with two points to show from their opening three La Liga matches will lock horns at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes on Monday evening as Granada welcome Real Betis.

Granada, who occupy 17th spot in the table, suffered a 4-0 defeat to Rayo Vallecano in their last game before the international break, while 14th-placed Betis lost 1-0 to Real Madrid.

We say: Granada 1-1 Real Betis

There has only actually been one draw in the last five La Liga meetings between these two sides, but we are finding it difficult to separate them here. Betis are, arguably, the favourites, but Granada have a lot of quality in their side, and we have had to settle on a share of the spoils.
