Getafe Aims for Third Straight Win Against Struggling Girona
GETAFE, Spain – Getafe CF will host Girona FC on October 31, 2025, in a La Liga clash that promises to be crucial for both teams. Getafe, currently sitting 10th in the league, seeks to build on their recent success after a convincing 11-0 victory in the Copa del Rey and a narrow 1-0 win over Athletic Bilbao last weekend.
The hosts have collected 14 points from their first ten matches this season, reflecting four wins, two draws, and four losses. They trail sixth-placed Real Betis by just two points, suggesting a possible move up the table with a home victory.
Girona, on the other hand, is struggling at the bottom of the standings with only seven points from ten games. They have won just one match, alongside four draws and five losses, and have recorded the worst defensive statistics in the league, conceding 22 goals.
Despite their troubles, Girona managed to triumph in the Copa del Rey, defeating Constancia 3-2 in extra time earlier this week. Their recent La Liga performance included a dramatic 3-3 draw with Real Oviedo and a win against Valencia, showing signs of potential improvement as they aim to escape the relegation zone.
Getafe head coach José Bordalas is likely to maintain the winning lineup from last week, with Alex Sancris returning from suspension. However, injuries to Davinchi and Abel Abqar may limit his options. In contrast, Girona’s manager Michel is set to welcome back Alejandro Frances while missing key players like David Lopez and Juan Carlos due to injury.
The match at the Estadio Coliseum marks a significant moment for both clubs—a chance for Getafe to extend their winning streak and for Girona to claim a much-needed victory. The previous encounter saw Getafe win 2-1, and they will look to repeat that success.
Both teams are aware that the outcome could shift their season’s narrative, providing an exciting atmosphere for fans. The match kicks off at 9:00 p.m. BST, and the odds favor Getafe, who may capitalize on Girona’s vulnerabilities to secure the points.
