Getafe vs Racing: Team News and Expert Analysis
The Madrid club finally performed well again last season. They collected 51 points, edging out Rayo Vallecano by the smallest of margins for seventh place. As a result, the Spaniards went to the Conference League, where they calmly defeated Partizan 3-1 in the qualifiers. Slightly earlier, in La Liga against Alavés, they suffered a shocking defeat, or rather, the fact that they lost 0-3! However, after Femenía was sent off, they held on and conceded all goals in the last twenty minutes.
The team from Santander hadn’t played in La Liga since 2012. For half of the following seasons, they were down in the country’s third division. Returning to the Segunda in 2022, they went on to win it last season. After the summer break, they took an early two-goal lead against strong Villarreal, but their experienced opponent equalized before halftime.
The capital's footballers remained very pragmatic: they scored only 0.84 goals on average, while conceding few as well—exactly one per match. The newly promoted La Liga side had a much higher average at the lower level, netting 2.14 goals per game and conceding a third less—1.45 per match.
