Getafe vs Sevilla – News and Probable Lineups

Getafe is looking to secure a third consecutive victory in Spain’s top division as they face Sevilla at home on Sunday afternoon.

The home team currently sits 11th on the La Liga standings, five points above the relegation places, while Sevilla is positioned 13th, trailing their opponents by three points.

Match overview

Getafe has managed to put together a solid four-match unbeaten streak in Spain’s premier league, winning their last two matches against Alaves and Villarreal.

A tally of eight wins, five draws, and 11 losses from 24 league games has granted Getafe 29 points, placing them in 11th position, five points clear of relegation, and just six points off sixth-place Espanyol.

Jose Bordalas’ squad comes into this fixture after a commendable 2-1 victory against Villarreal, though their home record ranks only 16th in Spain’s top flight this season.

The Deep Blue Ones previously defeated Sevilla 2-1 in their earlier encounter this season, marking their first win over Los Nervionenses since December 2023.

Historically, Sevilla has had the upper hand in this matchup, having won 10 of their last 14 matches across all competitions, with only three losses.

Sevilla is coming off a 1-1 draw against Alaves and has managed just one win in 2026—a 2-1 triumph over Athletic Bilbao on January 24.

It has been another disappointing season for Los Nervionenses, accumulating 26 points from 24 matches leaves them in 13th place, just two points ahead of the relegation zone.

Matias Almeyda’s side has faced difficulties defensively this season, with 39 goals conceded in their 24 outings, representing the joint-second worst statistic in the league.

Sevilla is deeply embroiled in a relegation struggle as they head into a critical phase of the season, facing Real Betis and Barcelona in two of their next four fixtures.

Last season, Los Nervionenses finished in 17th place in Spain’s top division, marking their worst finish since their relegation in the 1999-2000 season.

Team News

For Sunday’s La Liga clash, Getafe will definitely miss three players: Davinchi, Abu Kamara, and Mario Martin due to injuries.

Borja Mayoral is another concern – the striker is nearing a return from a knee injury that has kept him sidelined since the end of 2025, but this fixture might be too soon for him.

Head coach Bordalas is expected to field the same lineup that started against Villarreal, with Djene Dakonam likely to play in midfield again.

On the other hand, Sevilla will be without Ruben Vargas, Marcao, Oso, and Andres Castrin due to various injury issues, while Joan Jordânia and Juanlu Sanchez are both serving suspensions.

Jordânia and Sanchez received red cards in Sevilla’s previous match against Alaves, with the former’s ejection occurring as early as the 16th minute.

Neal Maupay is once again anticipated to take up a position in the attacking third, while Jose Angel Carmona is likely to be included in the starting XI this weekend.

Getafe probable starting XI:

Soria; Abqar, Duarte, Romero; Femenia, Dakonam, Milla, Arambarri, Iglesias; Vazquez, Satriano

Sevilla probable starting XI:

Vlachodimos; Azpilicueta, Nianzou, Rooms; Carmona, Gudelj, Agoume, Sow, Suazo; Adams, Disappointment

Sevilla can certainly pose a challenge for Getafe, but the home team is in good form, leading us to predict that the capital club will secure another win here.
