La Liga Preview: Barcelona Aims for Three Points Against Getafe to Regain Lead; Severe Injuries Pose a Threat

On September 26 at 3 AM, in the 7th round of La Liga, Barcelona will host Getafe. Barcelona leads the league with a perfect record, while Getafe is in the relegation zone without a win. The gap in strength between the two sides is significant, and Barcelona hopes to secure a home victory, re-establishing a four-point lead.

In the La Liga standings, Barcelona tops the table with 18 points from six wins, while Getafe ranks 19th with four points from four draws and two losses.

Barcelona’s form is excellent, having won all their league matches so far. They lead Real Madrid by one point despite playing one game fewer. The goal for this round is undoubtedly to take all three points and widen the gap with Real Madrid.

In Barcelona’s squad, Lewandowski has contributed six goals and two assists, making him the top scorer. Rafinha has provided five goals and three assists, and Yamal has scored four goals and made five assists, becoming the player who has created the most goals for the team.

After Ter Stegen’s serious injury, Barcelona has been searching for a replacement on the free agent market. Polish goalkeeper Szczesny has agreed to join Barcelona and will officially become a Barcelona player next week. The entire Barcelona team is under the shadow of injuries, with eight first-team players currently injured: Ter Stegen, Gavi, Araujo, De Jong, Christensen, Olmo, Bernal, and Firmin. This will have a significant impact on the team given their multi-front battles.

This season, Kounde and Rafinha have played the full 90 minutes in all seven of Barcelona’s games, highlighting their indispensability; 17-year-old Yamal has only rested for 14 minutes, also enduring long-term high-intensity competition.

Getafe has only scored three goals this season, tied for the fewest in the league, with goals coming from Alaba, Uche, and Mayoral. Interestingly, Getafe’s defense is quite solid, conceding only five goals, tied for the second-fewest in the league. For this match, Getafe’s Alvaro is out due to injury.

In previous encounters, Barcelona has dominated with 30 wins, 10 draws, and 4 losses; at Barcelona’s home ground, they have completely overwhelmed the opponent with 18 wins and 4 draws.
