Getafe and Real Vallecano go head-to-head at the Estadio Coliseum Alfonso Pérez in round 21 of the Spanish La Liga on Sunday.
The hosts will head into the weekend looking to get one over Los Franjirrojos, having failed to win the last four meetings between the sides since February 2019.
Getafe picked up their first point in 2023 as they fought back from behind to salvage a 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid.
Prior to that, they were on a dire run of five consecutive defeats across all competitions, including a 3-2 loss against Levante in the Copa del Rey on January 3.
With 18 points from 20 matches, Getafe are currently 19th in the La Liga table, two points off 17th-placed Valencia just outside the danger zone.
Meanwhile, Rayo Vallecano maintained their fine run of form as they secured a 2-0 victory over Almeria on February 6.
They have won three of their last four league matches, with a 2-0 loss against Real Sociedad on January 21 being the exception.
Rayo Vallecano are currently fifth in the La Liga standings after picking up 32 points from 20 matches.
