Getafe form and stats

The story so far in the La Liga for Getafe at their home stadium (Coliseum Alfonso Pérez) is 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats. The Getafe fans aren't used to losing league-games here at Coliseum Alfonso Pérez and will expect new points from this game. Getafe has played ten games in a row here without a defeat.

No payout for Getafe in their previous match, an away game at Real Madrid that ended in defeat 0-2. Getafe's goalkeeper Soria was extremely busy against Real Madrid, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning six saves.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Mallorca in a game that was won 1-0.

The manager Flores will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Celta de Vigo in only four days.

Villarreal form and stats

Villarreal have only collected 14 points from their away games in the La Liga, after 3-5-7 (15 played). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Villarreal are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Bayern München in their previous outing. The Champions League battle ended 1-1. Albiol, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.34. Albiol won 5 of 7 duels.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Athletic Club in the La Liga.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Valencia in just three days.

The attacking power of Villarreal when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored from 15 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches.
