Getafe Preview: Jose Bordalas’ Getafe

Getafe have once again embodied the aggression and hostility of their coach Jose Bordalas this season to punch above their weight and move themselves into the middle-of-the-table with the last couple of months showing major signs of improvement.

The Madrid-based club come into this one on the back of an impressive 4-0 hammering of an admittedly awful and relegation-bound Real Valladolid side at the Estadio Jose Zorrilla courtesy of a brace from Ramon Terrats as well as strikes from Mauro Arambarri and Domingos Duarte.

Las Palmas Preview: The collapse of the Canarians

During the October international break, then bottom-of-the-table and still winless Las Palmas appeared destined for the drop but the appointment of Diego Martinez to replace Luis Carrion sparked a revival that had them kicking towards mid-table at the turn of the year.

However, in 2025, the Canary Islanders have collapsed back into the bottom three and the relegation places with their 3-1 defeat at home to Real Sociedad last weekend meaning that they are now unbeaten in their last 13 matches across all competitions.

Getafe Team News: Fit but small squad

Getafe have had such a small squad this season, hence the aforementioned suggestion that they have over achieved, that they have had to play plenty of players regularly way out of position but they are blessed with a fully fit and available squad for this one. 

Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): David Soria; Jorge Iglesias, Domingos Duarte, Omar Alderete, Diego Rico; Mauro Arambarri, Luis Milla; Ramon Terrats, Uche, Juan Bernat; Juanmi

Las Palmas Team News: A few injuries

Predicted XI (4-4-2): Horkas; Viti, Juanma Herzog, McKenna, Mika Marmol; Sandro, Dario Essugo, Javier Munoz, Alberto Moleiro; McBurnie, Silva

Unavailable: Cillessen (Injured), Kirian Rodriguez (Illness)

Questionable: Pelmard (Injured), Benito (Injured)

Getafe vs Las Palmas Prediction

Getafe’s best performances in the last couple of months have, surprisingly, come away from the Coliseum, but they have also been able to prove as stubborn to play against as ever at home, too, with a defeat of Atletico Madrid last month. Las Palmas showed major signs of life at the turn of the year but are now instead in danger of simply waiting for their relegation to be confirmed alongside Valladolid. A scrappy home win seems the likeliest outcome for this one in the Community of Madrid.
