I had planned to raise this bet yesterday but I backed off as I don’t know what Bordalás will do with the right-back position.
Normally Damian and Nyom play on that side. Both are injured. I don’t think he will put anyone on foot changed and I think he will enter with Djené since the other center-backs do not have the side profile. Etxeita is very slow and Chema is more of the same …
In addition, Bordalás has already tested Djené as a defensive pivot this year, therefore I would not be surprised if with all these casualties he put him on the side.
It may be that Bordalás ends up inventing something but if he ends up playing as a side Djené, this quota seems great to me. Anyway I am going to enter with a minimum stake.
Djené averages 1.4 innings per game and since he arrived at Getafe he has not dropped an average of 1 innings per game. And that the centrals do not usually average so many tickets per game since they are more positional and do not cover as much field.
He has played 14 games this season and has crossed the line in 5 of them. 4 of them playing as a center-back and 1 as a pivot.
For example, Damien at Getafe averages 2.4 innings per game and of the 11 games he has played this year, he has crossed the line in 8 of them. Historically averages more than 2 innings per game in recent years.
His rival will be Atletico, who I think will dominate most of the game. Getafe has significant casualties and also this year is not fine at all. It is the seventh team with the lowest average possession in the league and the fifth team with the most innings per game due to its high pressure.
As I say, that high pressure that Bordalás prints will be very key. If Djené plays as a winger, I think the odds go up a lot and if he ends up being central, I still see chances of him coming out.
Atleti in attack will have very fast and mobile players like Carrasco, Joao Felix, Lemar and Luis Suarez, therefore Djené will have to work hard.
