Getafe will square off against Guadalajara in a friendly at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez on Thursday (December 8).
The hosts fell to a 1-0 defeat against Real Valladolid in a friendly in November. Roberto Arroyo's 27th-minute strike was the difference between the two sides. Guadalaraja, meanwhile, have not been in action since a defeat at Puebla in the Liga MX playoff in October.
Both sides could not be separated in a 1-1 draw. Carlos Barajas equalised for the visitors in the sixth minute of injury time after Martin Barragan had put the hosts ahead in the 58th minute. A penalty shootout ensued, where Puebla progressed with a 5-4 win.
Getafe will use the friendly as a warm-up for their return to competitive action when they travel to face Diocesano in the Copa del Rey.

Getafe vs Guadalajara
Getafe are precariously close to the relegation zone in La Liga and will want to start on a positive note when they return to competitive action.
Guadalajara, meanwhile, also ended their league campaign on a disappointing note, losing their last five games across competitions.
The Mexicans are some way off the level of Getafe, and home advantage gives the La Liga side an extra edge. Coach Quique Sanchez Flores is likely to name a strong team for the Los Azulones. Getafe should claim a comfortable win in a high-scoring game.
