ALA Vs GEF Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
With Deportivo Alaves offering nothing in the attacking docket, the only chance they have of salvaging anything from this clash is by pulling off a sublime defensive display. And as long as Fernando Pacheco is up their in goal for the side, the club will know it can make life a searing headache for Getafe.
Defenders
A cleansheet in their league opener ended up taking Getafe past the finishing line against Osasuna. It was a performance akin to their well rounded defensive showings last term to remind us of how tricky a side this is to score against.
Where the best clubs have gotten cold feet infront of them, Deportivo Alaves are hardly going to stand a chance. The side has scored the lone goal in two encounters, a sorry run which will be kept intact today.
The all but assured for Getafe today sees us opt for all of Damian Suarez, Dakonam Djene, Mathias Olivera and Xabier Etxeita.
Midfielders
His wingback role makes Allan Nyom a must have pick from the visiting team. It’s a position where he’s flourished ever since being handed over its mantle, one where he has been able to unleash an attacking side of the game previously unknown.
Mauro Arambarri will link up with him as we opt for the two picks from the club. Deportivo Alaves meanwhile see us keep our selections more defensively inclined to see the gritty and plucky Rodrigo Battaglia and Luis Rioja grace our setup.

Getting off the mark right away for Getafe, Jamie Mata’s goal against Osasuna ensured his side got three points from their season opener. Joselu has scored the only goal for Deportivo Alaves till now to see the club’s striker be our pick.
