Villarreal are back in action in La Liga with an important fixture this weekend as they take on Getafe at the Estadio de la Ceramica on Sunday. Villarreal have been impressive this season and have a point to prove in this match.
Getafe are in 15th place in the La Liga standings at the moment and are yet to hit their peak this season. The Madrid-based outfit eased past SD Huesca last weekend and will want a similar result from this fixture.
Villarreal, on the other hand, currently find themselves in seventh place in the league table and have been impressive under Unai Emery. The Yellow Submarines edged Arsenal to a 2-1 victory in the Europa League earlier this week and will be confident ahead of this game.
Villarreal vs Getafe Head-to-Head
Villarreal have a good record against Getafe and have won 14 games out of a total of 26 matches played between the two teams. Getafe have managed eight victories against Villarreal and will need to step up in this match.
The previous game between the two teams took place in November last year and ended in a 3-1 victory for Villarreal. Getafe were well below their best on the day and need to take it up a notch this weekend.
