Valencia are back in action with another important La Liga fixture this weekend as they take on Getafe on Sunday, September 4. Both teams have struggled this season and will want to win the game.
Getafe are currently 18th in the La Liga standings and have been in poor form this season. The Madrid-based outfit held Villarreal to a 0-0 stalemate last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
Valencia, meanwhile, are in 14th place and have not been at their best in the current campaign. Los Che slumped to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Atletico Madrid in their previous game and will want to bounce back this weekend.
Valencia vs Getafe Head-to-Head
Valencia have a good record against Getafe, having won 18 out of the 39 matches played between the two teams. Getafe have managed 12 victories against Valencia and will want to add to their tally on Sunday.
The previous meeting between the two teams took place in March this year and ended in a goalless draw. Both teams squandered chances on the day and will need to be more clinical this weekend.

Valencia vs Getafe Prediction
Valencia have faced yet another player exodus this summer and have their work cut out this season. With Carlos Soler unavailable, the likes of Hugo Duro and Samu Castillejo will need to step up for Los Che in the 2022-23 campaign.
Getafe can present a robust front on their day, but find themselves in the relegation zone at the moment. Valencia are the better team on paper and should be able to win the game.
Prediction: Valencia 1-0 Getafe
