Villarreal last match

In the last match they played, Villarreal collected a defeat. The opposing team was Real Madrid, and the match - which ended with the result of 2-0 - was valid for La Liga. Coach M. García Toral's disposed his team in a 4-3-3 formation.

Before the match, it had already been stated that defeat was the most logical outcome. The most obvious indication was the odds for their victory, 8.50.

The defense suffered the assaults of the rival team by coming out significantly downsized in the duels on the field. The worst in the department is Raúl Albiol, constantly struggling in the face of the incursions of the opposing attackers. The performance of the entire team suffers from its lapses in concentration.

Villarreal

La Liga leaderboard now

The Villarreal team with 17 points currently occupies the 4th place of the leaderboard, being in the qualifying place for the UEFA Champions League, with a campaign of 5 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses.

In the 10th round, the team has the same points that the Atlético Madrid team who occupies position 3.

Villarreal analysis

Currently, Villarreal has a tally of 17 goals scored and 17 goals against, at the end of round 9 of La Liga.

The Villarreal team comes from a defeat in the La Liga, and its coach Marcelino García Toral wants to counter this trend by imposing a loss on his opponent, using the advantage of playing at home.

Villarreal average of shots on goal is certainly not the brightest, but that cannot be said about the accuracy of getting on goal. In fact, the team has shot 4.44 times on goal, but has a goal-scoring average of 1.89. Basically, for every 5 shots on goal, it scores 2 goals.

Villarreal, with a ball possession of 42.78% per game on average, is not the team that imposes its game, and rather prefers a tactic devoted to waiting and counterattacks. However, in the match against Getafe of 2024/2025 they will have to do something more, try to maintain possession of the ball and attack the opponent's goal with more continuity.

Diego Conde, goalkeeper hired by the team in the current season, still presents some difficulties in adapting to the new club. In the last duel, for example, this became very clear. He couldn't perform well and hurt Villarreal in the search for victory against Real Madrid.

Best goalscorer from Villarreal

Until this stage of the season, in terms of individual exhibitions, the highlight is Ayoze Pérez. The Attacker has scored 6 times in this competition and helped Villarreal avoiding adverse outcomes on several occasions.

Getafe

La Liga leaderboard now

Getafe arrives in this game with 8 points, and in 16th place in the La Liga, having won once in total and lost 3 times, making a total of 5 draws.

Which means that the team, has the same number of points in the 10th round that the Leganés team in 17th place.

Getafe analysis

Getafe, after 9 rounds, has conceded more goals than it has scored. The goals scored are in fact 6 while 7 are those conceded to opponents.

It seems that Getafe is having trouble scoring goals, with a low number of goals scored and a high number of games where they failed to score. This implies that their attacking play needs improvement, with a focus on creating better chances and converting them into goals.

Getafe has shown that they are a patient team, with a high average first goal scored minutes this season. Their ability to control the game and wait for their opportunities is reflected in their low number of goals conceded. This suggests that the team is tactically disciplined and organized, waiting for the right moment to strike. If Getafe can continue to maintain this level of patience and discipline, it will serve them well in future matches.

The team does not shine in attack, with a scoring average of 0.67 goals per game. With these statistics against it, it can hardly count on a good result in the next away game.

One of the team's signings for the season still seems to be in a slow pace of adaptation. Diego Rico played another underwhelming game in the club's last appearance, against Osasuna. He failed to show the expected security and did not help Getafe to come out with the victory.

Best goalscorer from Getafe

In the individual highlights of the team in the offensive sector, the focus falls on Mauro Arambarri so far in the competition. With 2 goals with his signature, the Midfielder has helped his team Getafe to achieve victorious results this season.
