The Coliseum Alfonso Pérez is the stage for this highly-anticipated encounter as Getafe and Celta lock horns in the LaLiga Santander. Read on for our expert tips and predictions.

Over the last 20 meetings between both sides, we've seen Getafe pick up seven wins whilst their opponents aren't so far behind with six of their own. Although Getafe has a slight lead on the head-to-head record, Celta head into this game unbeaten in three matches against these opponents.

The hosts eyeing first league win of the season

There has been improvement in Getafe's league results of late as they look to continue their two-game unbeaten run. The Azulones are currently at the bottom of the standings having lost all of their first seven matches in the Spanish top-flight and although former coach managed to secure a point for his side just before the international break at home to the league leaders Real Sociedad, it wasn't enough for the Getafe board who relieved him of his duties and replaced him with Quique Sanchez Flores. The new coach didn't get off to a positive start, however, the point earned away at Levante should serve as a confidence booster as they look to finally get off the mark on Monday.

Celta Vigo also had a tough start to the 2021/2022 season having failed to secure a win in their first four games- losing thrice. At the end of September, it looked like the grass was finally getting greener as they picked up two wins on the bounce beating Levante and Granada. However, they seem to be back with their early season form as they travel to Getafe off the back of two straight losses away at Elche just before the international break and most recent to Sevilla at the Abanca Balaidos. A 54th-minute strike from Rafa Mir was the major talking point as Sevilla condemned Celta to their sixth loss of the season.
