Getafe: current form, latest results, statistics
Getafe remains the squad leader in La Liga, behind the four escapes, the big teams in Spain, Barcelona, Atletico, Real Madrid and Sevilla. The situation was balanced in this area, between 5 and 10, the difference being only 3 points. Many can change from one stage to another and if Getafe wants to occupy a European seat, Getafe needs to be very careful.
For now she is in the fifth position with 32 points. The last two stages, both disputed, brought him one point. After that 4-0 with Alaves I expected more from this team, but I was disappointed.
Let’s look at the results of the last 5 meetings:
- 18.01.19 Getafe vs Alaves 4-0
- 22.01.19 Getafe vs Valencia 1-0 (Copa del Rey)
- 26.01.19 Atletico Madrid vs Getafe 2-0
- 29.01.19 Valencia vs Getafe 3-1 (Copa del Rey)
- 02.02.19 Levante vs Getafe 0-0
At home, Getafe has 4 defeats in the 10 games played. Only the first 3 came in the first part of the season in the first 6 games. Valencia, Atletico Madrid and Levante were the teams that managed to win the Coliseum. Since then he has played 4 meetings, winning 3, and losing only one in Barcelona (1-2). Jorge Molina, with 8 goals scored, remains the home team’s top scorer.
Celta Vigo: current form, latest results, statistics
Celta Vigo managed to win for the first time in 2019. The last success since early December (8), that victory at Villareal (3-2). This result came in time to stop a fall that seemed to stop.
It has come very close to the dangerous area of the rankings. No victory in the match with Sevilla was on the 18th place, relegable. Even now the difference is not important. Only one point separates it from Rayo Vallecano occupying that position. It remains to be seen if this victory will bring a higher lead over the next period.
These are the results of the team in the last 5 games:
- 07.01.19 Celta Vigo vs Athletic Bilbao 1-2
- 11.01.19 Rayo Vallecano vs Celta Vigo 4-2
- 19.01.19 Celta Vigo vs Valencia 1-2
- 27.01.19 Valladolid vs Celta Vigo 2-1
- 02.02.19 Celta Vigo vs Sevilla 1-0
Celta Vigo is not one of the teams that are doing well on the move. He won only twice, at Levante and Villareal, and ended up with Valencia and Betis. It is worth noting that he scored 16 goals in the 10 games played. It is the fourth offensive in La Liga in the away games after Barcelona, Sevilla and Real Madrid. He scored in 9 out of 10 runs. Only Barcelona failed to sign up.
In January, in the transfer window, he managed to strengthen his team with 3 important players. The defender Wesley Hoedt from Southampton has already begun, Algerian midfielder Ryad Boudebouz from Betis Sevilla and Uruguayan defender Lucas Olaza from Boca Juniors.
Iago Aspas remains the scorer of the team with 10 goals scored, but he will not return to this game.

Getafe vs Celta Vigo: Direct Matches
In the last six direct meetings held in Madrid, the hosts have won 5 times and the guests only once.
Getafe remains favorites to win this match. Celta won the victory in the game with Sevilla, but will have a difficult meeting in Madrid. I will try to choose a bet that also covers a possible equality result.
