Both teams are managed by experienced coaches, with José Bordalás at the helm of Getafe and Rubén Baraja leading Valencia CF. The managerial matchup adds an interesting dynamic, given their past encounters and success rates. Bordalás has a 37% success rate with Getafe, while Baraja has a 33% success rate with Valencia CF.
The match is crucial for both teams as they look to improve their standings in the La Liga table. Getafe is currently 16th with 9 points, while Valencia CF is at the bottom of the table with 6 points from 10 matches.
