Team News

Getafe
Espanyol
  • Xabier Etxeita is suspended for the home side, which should see Erick Cabaco feature at centre-back alongside Djene.
  • Mauro Arambarri and Nemanja Maksimovic are both available again after suspension and should both start in central midfield.
  • Jaime Mata is also back after a ban and is expected to replace Jorge Molina in attack.
  • Diego Lopez is available after a ban once again and should start in goal for the away side despite Oier keeping a clean sheet against Alaves.
  • Wu Lei is expected to start up top for the visitors too, after his goal carried Abelardo's side to a comfortable 2-0 victory on their LaLiga return.
  • Leandro Cabrera and Bernardo are both one booking away from suspension, which would see the central defenders miss an important clash against Levante.

Prediction

  • Getafe lost ground in the race for Champions League football after conceding late against Granada in their LaLiga return.
  • After Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid both dropped points last week, Pepe Bordalas' side are still firmly in the race for fourth.
  • Espanyol profited from three points against Alaves in a week where the rest of the relegation battlers failed to win, putting the away side in position to pull off an escape.
