Getafe, who have been 15th for three consecutive seasons, is currently in 10th place with 19 points, ten points above the danger zone. Despite criticism from La Liga experts and coaches, their aggressive and “gritty” style of football is paying off and they should not back away from it.

Valencia, a team that finished 16th last season, is currently in 9th place, seven points away from the desired 6th place. Under new owner Peter Lim, the Bats have been underperforming, and their current position is 9th, with the European spots slowly slipping away. The team’s performance is a concern for the club’s future.

Omar Alderete, a central defender, will miss the upcoming La Liga game due to a red card. Domingos Duarte may start as a central defender. Diego Rico and Damián Suárez, full-backs/wing-backs, will serve one-game suspensions. Mauro Arambarri, Enes Unal, and Jose Angel Carmona will remain sidelined. Coach Jose Pepe Bordalás will have an extra motive to win, as Valencia sacked him in June 2022 before rejoining Getafe.

Jose Gaya, a starting left full-back and team captain, will miss the game due to a muscle injury he sustained against Celta Vigo. Andre Almeida, who also suffered an injury in October, will remain sidelined. After a 1:0 win over Arosa, coach Rubén Baraja expressed satisfaction with the team’s progress and praised striker Roman Yaremchuk, hinting that he could receive more playing time in upcoming games. Both players are expected to return to the field in mid or late December.
