Getafe are currently in 19th place in the La Liga standings and have struggled to cope with the rigors of the top flight so far this season. The Madrid-based outfit slumped to a damaging 1-0 defeat at the hands of Espanyol over the weekend and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Celta Vigo, on the other hand, are in 13th place in the league table at the moment and have been inconsistent this season. The Galician giants suffered a 3-1 defeat against Villarreal in their previous game and have a point to prove this week.
