The La Liga fixture, Getafe CF vs. Villarreal CF kicks off at 20:00 (GMT+1) on Saturday, April 16, at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.
Getafe picked up a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Real Madrid last weekend following a visit to the Santiago Bernabéu. Poor in the final third, the Deep Blue Ones were unable to register a single shot on target for the entire length of the game, despite making eight attempts. The club remains in 14th place with 32 points from 7W, 11D, and 13L, while looking to avoid back-to-back defeats, LDDWL. A victory over the Yellow Submarine would see Getafe move into 13th place if Rayo Vallecano [34 points] fails to defeat Deportivo Alaves at the weekend. Recent back-to-back defeats to Villarreal has Quique Sánchez Flores nervous ahead of this meeting with the Yellow Submarine. However, the Deep Blue Ones are unbeaten in their last 10 LaLiga home games [7W, 3D] and are on the verge of matching their longest single-season unbeaten home run in the competition, 11 games [7W, & 4D], picked up back in the 2004/05 season. Quique Sánchez Flores saw his winning rate drop to 32% after the defeat to Los Blancos [25G: 8W, 10D, and 7L]. The 56-year-old lined up a defensive-minded 5—3—2 formation with Enes Ünal and Borja Mayoral in attack last weekend. However, a switch to the 3—5—2 with the attacking duo remaining in place is expected for Saturday’s clash against Villarreal. Jakub Jankto remains suspended after the red card against Mallorca, along with Djené Dakonam, who has accumulated a yellow-card suspension.
After a comfortable victory over the Blues on European soil, Los Blancos are back in LaLiga, looking to extend their lead at the top of the table. The La Liga fixture, Real Madrid CF vs. Getafe CF, kicks off at 20:00 (GMT+1) on Saturday, April 9, at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu.
Getafe picked up a narrow 1-0 win over Mallorca last weekend on home soil after a single goal from Borja Mayoral (82’). The club remains in 14th place with 32 points from 7W, 11D, and 12L. An unlikely win here against Real Madrid would see the Deep Blue Ones move into 13th place if Rayo Vallecano [33 points] fail to defeat Valencia on Monday. Quique Sánchez Flores has a 33%-win rate [24G: 8W, 10D, and 6L] in his third spell at the club and is looking forward to seeing those numbers improve at the end of this clash against Real Madrid. The 56-year-old lined up a dynamic 3—5—2 formation with Enes Ünal and Sandro Ramírez in attack for the game against Mallorca and is expected to keep the same shape and attacking personnel for this weekend’s game.
The LaLiga fixture, Atlético de Madrid vs. Getafe CF, kicks off at 21:00 (GMT+1) on Saturday, February 12, at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.
Getafe picked up an impressive 3-0 win over Levante last Friday on home soil. Enes Ünal (1’ & 29’) bagged a brace inside half an hour, leaving Getafe with a two-goal lead at the break. Carles Aleñá (90’+5) wrapped up all three points with Getafe’s third, five minutes inside stoppage time. Getafe is in 15th place with 25 points from 6W, 7D, and 10L. An unlikely win over Atletico Madrid would see the Deep Blue Ones climb a few steps ahead if favorable outcomes emerge at the end of the weekend. Quique Sánchez Flores has a 42%-win rate (17G: 7W, 6D, and 4L) in his third spell at the club and is looking forward to seeing those numbers tell an improved story after his trip to the Wanda Metropolitano. The 56-year-old lined up a defensive 5—3—2 formation with Enes Ünal and Sandro Ramírez in attack for the game against Levante and is expected to keep the same shape and attacking personnel for this weekend’s game.

Getafe picked up a narrow 1-0 victory over Real Madrid when both sides met last weekend at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez. Indecisive, Brazilian center-back Militão lost the ball at the edge of his own box, leaving Getafe’s Enes Ünal (9’) with the opportunity for the opener inside the first ten minutes. Despite having slightly over eighty minutes left to play, Real Madrid were unable to find their way back into the game. Despite the victory, Getafe remains in 16th place with 18 points from 4W, 6D, and 9L. An unlikely win over Sevilla would see the Deep Blue Ones put deep blue water between themselves and the murky end of the relegation zone. Quique Sánchez Flores has a 38%-win rate (13G: 5W, 5D, and 3L) in his third spell at the club, following the departure of Michel. The 56-year-old lined up a defensive 5—3—2 formation with Enes Ünal and Sandro Ramírez in attack for the game against Real Madrid.

On availability, Djené Dakonam is ruled out of this fixture along with Mauro Arambarri.
Getafe CF vs. Real Madrid CF kicks off at 14:00 (GMT+1) on Sunday, January 2, at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.
Getafe picked up a narrow 1-0 victory over Osasuna on LaLiga Matchday 18 at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez. Getafe’s shot-stopper, David Soria, was called upon twice to keep the home side from falling behind in the first period. Minutes into the second half, Osasuna’s Sergio Herrera did similar at the other end. Both sides had seen several half-chances go by before the second-half substitute, Darío Poveda (90'+3), eventually broke the deadlock in stoppage time. It was Poveda’s first goal in Spanish top-flight football and it saw Getafe snatch all three points in what became their third win of the season. Having escaped the relegation zone, Getafe are in 16th place with 15 points from 3W, 6D, and 9L. An unlikely win over Real Madrid would see the Deep Blue Ones put some deep blue water between themselves and the murky end of the relegation zone. However, a defeat could see Getafe return right back to the troubled end of the table. Quique Sánchez Flores now has a 33%-win rate (12G: 4W, 5D, and 3L) in his third spell at the club, following the departure of Michel. The 56-year-old could line up in the 3—5—2 formation with the goal-scorer, Darío Poveda, and Enes Ünal in attack for this fixture against Real Madrid on Sunday.
The Spanish LaLiga Santander fixture, Villarreal CF vs. Getafe CF, kicks off at 14:00 (GMT+1) on Sunday, November 7, at El Madrigal.
Getafe picked up their first victory of the season last weekend when they defeated Espanyol, 2-1, at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez. A brace from Enes Ünal (31’ & 56’) was adequate to outscore the visitors who hit the back of the net once through Sergi Gomez (38’). However, the win wasn’t enough to lift them out of the bottom end of the Spanish LaLiga table, where they remain rooted in 20th place while having 6 points after 1W, 3D & 8L. A win for Getafe on Sunday could see the club take another step in the proper direction in their struggles for survival at the Spanish top-flight division. This will be the fifth game for Quique Sánchez Flores at the helm, having picked up from where Michel left off. The 56-year-old has a 25%-win rate, after 1W, 2D, & 1L in four games in the coaching seat for the club. On Sunday, Sánchez Flores will look to improve his numbers in his third coaching spell at the club. A 4—4—2 formation with Darío Poveda and Enes Ünal in attack is expected for this fixture against Villarreal on Sunday.
The Spanish LaLiga Santander fixture, Getafe CF vs. Real Sociedad, kicks off at 17:30 (GMT+1) on Matchday 8, Sunday, October 3 at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.
Languishing at the bottom of the LaLiga table in 20th place, while having seven straight defeats, 0W, 0D & 7L, Getafe looks like a side already ripe for relegation. Last weekend, Getafe added to the red patch of defeats with a 2-0 loss to Real Betis courtesy of a brace, in the shape of a single goal in both halves from Willian Jose (14' & 55'). Getafe registered three shots on target but weren't clinical enough to convert any of their chances at the Benito Villamarín. On Sunday, Míchel will aim for a point, despite the unfavourable numbers, with the aim of gradually turning around his side's fortunes. Ranking poorly on every key performing indicator on the table, Míchel's side has the lowest number of goals scored, 2, after seven games. Doing equally badly in defense, Getafe remains the highest conceding side in the league alongside Granada, Levante and Mallorca with 12 goals in seven appearances. The numbers are so grim that even a victory over Real Sociedad will leave Getafe in the bottom three. Michel, who took over from Jose Bordalas in the summer, is unsure what his future holds if the poor results continue to come. On Sunday, he could line up the 3—5—2 formation with José Macías and Enes Ünal in attack as he hopes for a miracle against red-hot-form Real Sociedad.
The Spanish LaLiga Santander fixture, Getafe CF vs. Atletico Madrid, kicks off at 18:30 (GMT+1) on Tuesday, September 21 at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.
Getafe were thrashed 3-0 by Rayo Vallecano on Matchday 5 at the Estadio de Vallecas. Oscar Trejo (9' P.) converted from the penalty spot in the opening minutes before Pathe Ciss (78') doubled Vallecano's lead with twelve minutes left on the clock. Three minutes later, Radamel Falcao (81') wrapped up the three points for Rayo and condemned Getafe to their fifth defeat in as many games: LLLLL. Having no points, the club sits at 19th place with a goal difference of -7 after five games: 0W, 0D, & 5L. Since his appointment in May, Míchel has failed to win a single game in charge across all competitions. On Tuesday, he will return with more question marks as his grip on the job continues to dangle by a thin thread. The 58-year-old will be in the run for at least a draw, knowing a victory over the Spanish champions would be a near-impossible task. In the last game against Rayo Vallecano, he had lined up the 4—2—3—1 formation, but that failed to yield any of the desired results. A defeat on Tuesday could be the final straw, and Michel may opt for a defensive 5—4—1 formation against an attacking-minded Atletico Madrid to avoid the axe. Jakub Jankto and Erick Cabaco remain in doubt for this fixture against Atletico Madrid.
Spanish La Liga fixture, F.C. Barcelona vs. Getafe C.F. kicks off at 16:00 (GMT+1) on Sunday, August 29 at Camp Nou.
Getafe Club de Futbol remain at the bottom of the league table following the 1-0 defeat to Sevilla on Match Day 2. A goal by Erik Lamela (90'+3) in stoppage time saw Getafe pick up the home defeat. It leaves them in 18th place with no points after two games: 0W, 0D & 2L. Coach Michel would be looking to bounce back from the narrow loss when the Deep Blue Ones make their third appearance of the season. Michel is expected to apply the defensive 5—3—2 formation in an attempt to keep the Barcelona forwards at bay, - most notably, the pacy Memphis Depay. The duo consisting of Unal and Ramirez could be leading the attack once again. A point against Barcelona is considered a good result for Michel. Luckily, he will have the luxury of making his selection from a fully fit squad.
Spanish La Liga fixture, Getafe C.F. vs. Sevilla F.C. kicks off at 19:00 (GMT+1) on Monday, August 23 at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez Stadium.
Getafe Club de Futbol return behind the opening day 1-0 defeat to Valencia on the road at the Mestalla Stadium. The game finished with ten men on both sides but Getafe gained the numerical advantage as early as the third minute. After a VAR review, Valencia's Hugo Guillamon (R. 3’) was sent off for an excessive challenge on a blue shirt. Despite being the side with a man down, Valencia pressed and were given the opportunity to put themselves in front after Denis Cheryshev was brought down in the box. Carlos Soler (11’ P.) stepped up and sent David Soria in the wrong direction for the only goal of the game. Getafe had a few clear-cut chances to get back into the game, but outstanding goalkeeping from Mamardashvili denied them on every opportunity. After the debut defeat as coach of Getafe, Michel would be looking to bounce back from the narrow loss on Match Day 2 when the Deep Blue Ones make their second appearance of the season. A defensive 5—3—2 formation with the attacking duo of Unal and Ramirez is expected from Michel. With the exception of Eric Cabaco who remains suspended after picking up a red in Friday’s game against Valencia, Michel will have the luxury of making his selection from a fully fit squad.
