David Soria ‘singled out’ as Getafe takes on Celta in Monday night clash.

Celta, meanwhile, drew 0-0 with Real Sociedad in their most recent match but remain without a victory in their last four games. Away from home, Claudio Giráldez’s side have gone two matches without a win, although they have also avoided defeat in their last two trips. Their ability to maintain that resilience will be tested against a Getafe side that has traditionally performed well in this particular fixture. The managerial battle is also an interesting subplot. Bordalás has faced Giráldez four times, recording one win, one draw, and two defeats, while Giráldez has faced Getafe on four occasions and has two wins, one draw, and one defeat. Bordalás’ much larger record against Celta stands at nine wins, seven draws, and five defeats from 21 meetings. A 3—4—2—1 formation with Pablo Durán in attack is expected against the home side.

Getafe CF vs. Celta de Vigo kicks off at 20:00 [GMT+1] on Monday, September 7, at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez. Getafe have collected three points from their opening matches and sit 14th in the table, while Celta have managed just one point and occupy 16th place. The hosts will be hoping to use home advantage to respond to their latest defeat, while Celta are searching for a much-needed victory after a difficult start. José Bordalás’ Getafe come into the match after a narrow 1-0 defeat against Osasuna last time out. Fortunately, their record at the Coliseum provides some encouragement. Getafe are unbeaten in their last two home matches and have won both of their most recent fixtures on home soil, making the stadium an important source of confidence. The two teams have already faced each other 38 times, with Celta holding a narrow advantage of 14 victories to Getafe’s 12, while the remaining meetings ended in draws. In La Liga specifically, however, the record is even tighter: Getafe have won 11 of 30 encounters, compared with 10 draws and nine victories for Celta. At the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, the balance shifts in favour of the hosts. Getafe have won nine of their 19 home meetings with Celta, while the visitors have managed four victories. The most recent meeting between the sides ended goalless, meaning another closely contested encounter could be on the cards. A 3—4—1—2 formation with Martín Satriano and Enes Ünal in attack is expected against the Sky Blues. Before kick-off, 33-year-old David Soria, who has been singled out, will receive recognition for his record of consecutive starts in LALIGA. According to a statement from the club, Roberto Jiménez, Director of the Player's Office at LALIGA, will present the veteran goalkeeper with the commemorative gift.
