Getafe flipped the prices on their head

The final score was Real Sociedad 0-1 Getafe. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

Jon Gorrotxategi put the first mark on the match 29', setting the tone for the rest of the night.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Real Sociedad led Shots on target 4-0, even though the scoreboard went another way. Real Sociedad also shaded Total shots 13-5.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Real Sociedad the favourite at 44.5% implied probability. That market lean missed.
