On Sunday, Getafe and Real Vallecano square off in the Spanish La Liga’s 21st round at the Estadio Coliseum Alfonso Pérez. Since February 2019, Los Franjirrojos and the hosts haven’t won any of their last four meetings, so the hosts are looking to win this weekend.

Getafe is 19th in the La Liga table with 18 points from 20 matches, two points behind Valencia, who is 17th and just outside the danger zone. On the other hand, Rayo Vallecano continued its excellent run with a 2-0 victory over Almeria on February 6. They have won three of their last four league games, with the exception of a 2-0 defeat to Real Sociedad on January 21. With 32 points from 20 matches, Rayo Vallecano is currently fifth in the La Liga standings.
