Getafe Faces Girona in Crucial Match for Survival

omidbasir- Getafe, under the management of Bordalás, arrives at Montilivi in dire need of points as they currently find themselves in the relegation zone. They will face Girona, who are on the rise, aiming for their fourth consecutive victory at home.

Girona heads into this match following a three-game winning streak in La Liga, all achieved since the start of the new year. The nine points earned have allowed the Catalan side to climb several spots in the standings. Against Getafe, they will look to secure a fourth win and put a direct rival six points behind.

Under the guidance of Míchel, Girona will benefit from the return of Marc-André Ter Stegen in goal, though it remains to be seen if he will start, given that Gazzaniga has kept two clean sheets during their winning streak. Additionally, Fran Beltrán will bolster the midfield, and Claudio Echeverri will provide fresh attacking options. These reinforcements seem to have revitalized Girona, who remain ambitious despite having worked hard to emerge from a challenging start to the season and contend with a highly competitive league table.

Historically, Getafe defeated Girona at Montilivi last season and won their earlier encounter this season 2-1 at the Coliseum. Míchel will be without several key players for this match, including Van de Beek and Ounahi due to injuries, as well as Arnau, who is suspended due to yellow card accumulation. Lass will also miss the match as he completes his suspension following a red card in a previous match against Osasuna.

On the other hand, Bordalás’s side is seeking a significant win at Montilivi to turn around a difficult season. Despite recent struggles, Getafe has bolstered their squad with four new signings, although Boselli is not yet registered. Enhanced depth may allow Zaid Romero and Luis Vázquez to make their debuts, potentially helping the team gain some much-needed ground in the standings.

Girona will aim to secure their second home victory following a narrow win against Osasuna, thanks to a goal from Vanat, who has been in excellent form, scoring in all three matches of 2026 and climbing into the top ten of La Liga’s leading goal scorers. Liso, with three goals to his name, will look to respond from Getafe’s side.
