Last season Valencia started the Spanish top-flight campaign in unconvincing form only to produce a late run of form that saw them seal a Champions League spot.
This season could well follow the same pattern, Los Ches have already made an unconvincing start to the campaign.
The unconvincing start to the campaign has already led to the dismissal of Marcelino as the club’s head coach this season. His successor Albert Celades has failed to win in his first two La Liga games as boss, but has a chance to claim three points on Wednesday night, as Los Ches host Getafe at the Mestalla.
Valencia have recorded just one league win this season, so Los Ches will be keen to get back to winning ways in this clash. Despite their relatively poor start to the season, Valencia can at least be assured that they are still difficult to beat at the Mestalla, as Los Ches have lost just once in 16 La Liga matches on home soil.
The home side has also lost just one of the last four meetings with Getafe in all competitions.
Like their hosts, Getafe have endured an unconvincing start to their La Liga campaign. In fact, the team from the Spanish capital have picked up just one more point than their hosts so far this season in La Liga.
Jose Bordalas’ team head to the Mestalla on a four-game unbeaten run, though after a 4-2 home win over Real Mallorca last time out. The visitors had drawn their previous three games against Athletic Club, Alaves and Real Betis.
Getafe have struggled for away wins in the Spanish top-flight, winning just once in 11 away games in La Liga, while failing to win in seven matches on their travels.
