Preview: Can Getafe Turn Things Around?

Real Betis arrives after a strong 2-1 comeback win against Villarreal, marking their third consecutive victory and fifth in six games across competitions. They trail second-placed Real Madrid by three points but hold the advantage in their head-to-head results this season. With an almost full squad except for Aitor Ruibal recovering from a meniscus injury, they look confident to climb into second place with a win.

Getafe, managed by Jose Bordalas, aims to snap a four-match winless streak. Their recent form includes back-to-back 1-1 draws at home, with limited success on the road where they've lost all three away games so far. Injuries sideline Christantus Uche (ACL), Juanmi (knee), Abdel Abqar (muscle), and Kiko Femenia (hamstring). Despite a recent victory over Betis in their last meeting, Getafe has lost three of the past four clashes.
