Matchday 28 in the Spanish La Liga sees ninth-place Valencia looking to make a late season push for European qualification when they host 11th-placed Getafe. Los Ches have a record of 10-7-9 on the season for a points total of 37. They have a game in hand advantage on the rest of the table, however, meaning they can move up to within two points of the top six if they are able to secure a victory in this matchup. Valencia will be looking to snap out of a three-match winless streak after a defeat to Las Palmas was followed up with back-to-back draws. Their most recent result was a 2-2 home draw with Real Madrid which saw Valencia go 2-0 up in the first half. Vinicius Jr was ultimately able to net a brace to limit both teams to just a point. Valencia have been excellent at the Estadio de Mestalla this campaign where they’ve accumulated 25 of their 37 total points.

Getafe come into this contest sitting 11th in the standings and trailing their opponents today by two points. Similarly to Valencia, Getafe are also on a stretch of two draws and a defeat over their last three appearances. The Azulones are coming off an action-packed 3-3 home draw with Las Palmas which saw Getafe surrender a two-goal lead to ultimately have to settle for a point. The result also means that Getafe have now managed just a single victory in their last six appearances in La Liga, during which time they have conceded 13 goals. Getafe haven’t traveled well this season as they have registered just a single victory on the road, drawing seven and losing six. That sole victory came back in December, meaning the visitors are winless in their last five away matches.
