Get ready for a midweek La Liga showdown as Getafe welcome Mallorca to the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez this Wednesday. Both sides are looking to build momentum in what promises to be a tightly contested fixture.
Currently sitting in 7th place with 45 points, Getafe have been a solid force this season under José Bordalás. Their most recent outing ended in a goalless draw against Real Oviedo, but they'll be eager to get back to winning ways in front of their home crowd. Mallorca, meanwhile, occupy 15th position with 39 points after a 1-1 draw with Villarreal in their last match. Martín Demichelis' side will be looking to climb the table with a positive result on the road.
History slightly favors Mallorca in this matchup, with 17 wins in 41 meetings compared to Getafe's 14. However, when playing at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, Getafe hold the edge with nine wins in 20 home games against their opponents. The last encounter between these two ended in a 1-0 victory for Mallorca.
From a form perspective, both teams are navigating tricky patches. Getafe are without a win in their last three matches and have lost two consecutive home games. Mallorca, though, have shown some resilience, losing just once in their last six outings and coming off back-to-back games without defeat. Interestingly, Mallorca have also scored in each of their last four away matches, which could be a key factor.
For Getafe, the expected lineup features David Soria in goal, with a defensive unit of Juan Iglesias, Domingos Duarte, Zaid Romero, and David Cordón. The midfield is anchored by Abdel Abqar, Dakonam Djené, Luis Milla, and Mauro Arambarri, while Martin Satriano and Mario Martín lead the attack.
Mallorca are likely to start Leo Román between the posts, with Mateu Morey, Martin Valjent, Omar Mascarell, and Johan Mojica forming the backline. Sergi Darder, Samuel Costa, Manu Morlanes, and Pablo Torre provide creativity in midfield, supporting forwards Zito Luvumbo and Vedat Muriqi.
Bordalás has faced Mallorca 15 times in his career, recording five wins, seven draws, and three defeats. With both teams eager to improve their standings, this midweek clash promises plenty of drama. Will Getafe use home advantage to snap their winless streak, or can Mallorca continue their solid run on the road? All eyes will be on the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.
