Getafe and Mallorca conclude their respective La Liga campaigns with a showdown at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez on Sunday. Getafe vs Mallorca-While the home side will be bidding to secure a win that could propel them into the top half of the standings, Mallorca enter the competition mathematically avoiding relegation.
After performing above last season’s 15th place finish throughout this campaign, Getafe can be largely satisfied with their efforts since August.They have already faced a worst-case scenario of 14th place this term, yet Jose Bordalas will be disappointed with the way his players are ending 2023-24.
Four consecutive defeats were posted without conceding a single goal, losing to Athletic Bilbao, Cádiz, Atlético Madrid and Alaves respectively.The eight points from the previous five games were quickly forgotten, with the Deep Blue Ones now on a run of just one win in eight.
Getafe’s last success at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez came against Girona on March 16 and they have scored just 19 goals in their 18 home matches.As for Mallorca, they fell short to avoid relegation, dropping considerably from their ninth-place finish last campaign.
Still, a run of five points from their last three matches – their longest unbeaten run since December – ensured Javier Aguirre’s side got over the line.The uptick in results could be enough to keep Aguero in the job, yet he will want to ensure momentum builds ahead of 2024-25 with just one win to their name in 18 league outings.
That came against Celta Vigo in September and they still have the potential to clinch 14th place if they can add a second to their name this weekend.Getafe will have to do without Ileix Moriba as an Alaves substitute after the midfielder received two yellow cards. Getafe vs Mallorca -Diego Rico and Juanmi Latasa are also missing due to yellow card accumulation, with Fabrizio Angeleri in line to come into the team at left wing-back.
Dejan Daconum is in contention to feature on the right side, depending on whether Bordalas wants to tinker too much with his starting lineup.Aguirre is likely to stick with the same Mallorca XI that drew 2-2 with Almeria last time out. Getafe vs Mallorca-If a change is made, it could come in midfield with Omar Mascarel replacing Samu Costa, Siebe van der Heyden’s only injury doubt.
