Getafe form and stats

The story so far in the La Liga for Getafe at their home stadium (Coliseum Alfonso Pérez) is 8 wins, 6 draws and 3 defeats.

Getafe are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 187 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by J. Mata).

Getafe manager J. Bordalás Jiménez and his team return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Osasuna (placed 11th) in the La Liga. Prior to that, an away loss at Real Madrid.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Getafe have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found seven matches with the results: Won five, drawn one and lost one.

The Getafe fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 24 in 17 matches. Getafe have only conceded 15 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Villarreal form and stats

8-1-8 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Villarreal in their La Liga matches away. Having won their last three away games Villarreal has no reason to fear anyone.

The manager J. Calleja Revilla was unhappy after their last game, a La Liga match played at their home ground Estadio de la Cerámica. Villarreal suffered a 1-4 loss to Barcelona (placed 2nd). Preceding that game was the away victory against Real Betis with the score of 2-0.

It's a bit worrying for Villarreal that their goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo made nine saves in the Barcelona game last time out, but still couldn''t prevent the loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Villarreal playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were four Villarreal wins, zero draws and four defeats.

Villarreal have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 17 league away games 22 goals have been scored. 21 goals have been conceded by Villarreal in these games.

Head 2 Head

This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Villarreal - Getafe 1-0. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Getafe won three games, two matches ended with a draw and Villarreal has five wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / seven
