We all know about the prevalence of cards in Spain, and it shows no signs of slowing down. Today's clash between Getafe and Athletic Bilbao has every chance of seeing plenty more dished out with Alejandro Jose Hernandez Hernandez in charge - a man who showed 124 yellow and 3 red cards last season in 19 matches.

This fixture has also produced plenty in recent years - The last six meetings have averaged six yellows per match and a total of 68.3 booking pts per match (10 for a yellow, 25 for a red).
So if cards are going to flow, who is going to see them?
Raul Garcia sticks out at 3/1 to be booked at anytime with William Hill. He's as short as evens elsewhere, and the true price is probably somewhere in the middle. He was booked 13 times last season in just 34 matches, and 13 the season before in 43 games.
It could also be worth chucking a small stake at defender Yeray. He was booked 10 times in 32 starts last season and seems to be getting more aggressive as the years click on.
3pts Raul Garcia to be shown a card at 3/1 (Hills)
1pt Yeray to to shown a card at 2/1 (Sky Bet)
