Mon Nov 04 21:44:01 UTC 2024: ## Getafe Aim for Fifth Unbeaten Match Against Celta Vigo

Getafe will be looking to extend their unbeaten run to five matches when they travel to the Estadio Municipal de Balaidos to face Celta Vigo on Monday night. While Getafe currently sit in 16th place with 10 points, Celta are in 11th place with 13 points.

Celta have been a thrilling team to watch this season, scoring 17 goals – only surpassed by Villarreal, Real Madrid, and Barcelona. However, their defense has been a cause for concern, with 20 goals conceded, the second-worst defensive record in the league.

Getafe, on the other hand, have been more defensively solid, conceding only nine goals. They have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just eight goals, the joint-lowest in the league. Despite this, they have been unbeaten in their last four matches.

The recent head-to-head record favors Getafe, who have won three of their last five encounters with Celta, including a 3-2 victory in February. Celta haven’t managed to beat Getafe in La Liga since October 2021.

Celta will be without several key players due to injury, including Carlos Dominguez, Tadeo Allende, Sergio Carreira, Joseph Aidoo, Jailson, and Luca de la Torre. However, Tasos Douvikas, who scored twice in the Copa del Rey, could be in line for a starting spot.

Getafe will be without Borja Mayoral, who is sidelined with a muscular injury, but otherwise have a full squad available.

The match is expected to be a tight affair, with both teams possessing strengths and weaknesses. The draw remains a likely outcome, given Getafe’s propensity for draws this season.

**Predicted Starting Lineups:**

**Celta Vigo:** Guaita; Manquillo, Starfelt, Alonso; Mingueza, Sotelo, Moriba, Alvarez; Aspas, Iglesias, Douvikas

**Getafe:** Soria; Iglesias, Dakonam, Alderete, Rico; Perez, Arambarri, Milla, Sola; Uche, Yildirim
