Team News

Barcelona
Getafe
  • Oriol Romeu should start over Andreas Christensen in a bid to control the midfield. Christensen was booked and played 86 minutes in the UCL against Napoli on Wednesday.
  • Joao Felix returns, having come on against Napoli, as does Raphinha.
  • Pau Cubarsi should start given his string of consecutive appearances in La Liga.
  • Mauricio Arambarri and Fabrizio Anglieri are out with injuries.
  • Jaime Mata seems to be the preferred option next to Borja Mayoral and should play at striker for the third consecutive match.

Prediction

  • Barcelona welcome Getafe to Catalonia for a fixture that has only seen one goal since August 2021. The reverse fixture ended in a goalless draw with both Raphinha and Jaime Mata being sent off. This is certainly a match that is crying out for Getafe's departed Damian Suarez.
  • The sharp and pacey winger Mason Greenwood has been heavily linked to Barcelona ever since he joined Getafe back in the summer of 2023, his confident and direct passing combined with tireless slaloming runs could be the key to the visitors taking something home with them this weekend.
  • Following on from previous meetings, this one should be tight and fiesty, but expect Barcelona to take the points that could see them overtake Girona in 2nd for the first time this season.
