One day after the new year 2024 and tomorrow La Liga matches will start again. The opening match was a match between Getafe vs Vallecano and as we know, Getafe is a quite phenomenal team so far. The reason is that they are now in 8th position and even have an impressive record in the last few matches. Meanwhile, Vallecano, which was expected to have the same performance as last season, is actually in 11th position in the standings, this cannot be separated from the bad results they have had so far.
As hosts, Getafe will clearly be the favorite in this match and they must win if they want to overtake Real Betis in the standings. Meanwhile, Vallecano is actually not an easy opponent to beat, but if they are able to overturn existing expectations with a win or a draw then that is at least something they can achieve in this match. What do you think, who will win this match tomorrow?
I think you are mistaking them with Girano? Because, Getafe is 8th and they are not that extraordinary at all, they are where they were expected to be by most people, and their opponent is Vallecano and they are 11th, so the difference between them is just six points, if Vallecano wins, the difference would be only 3 points as well, so it wouldn't be really that weird for them to win. Girona and Getafe does have similar sounding names and you might be confusing them to each other, that could be potentially the reason why you are thinking like that.
Any team in any league that is at 8th could end up losing to any team, not saying they would, Getafe could still very well win, I am just saying they do not have that kind of power to considered a winner for sure. If the yare going to win, they will have to work for it and make sure that they are doing their best and I would assume that it would definitely not be all that much of a bad idea for them to attack early, find a goal, and just park the bus.
I think @rendravolt was quite clear when he said about the Getafe club, not Girona, but just because of the word phenomenal, we might think that the club is an extraordinary club because in reality Getafe is an ordinary club, but its achievements in the last few match are quite deserves appreciation because he is on a winning streak and only lost once in the last 5 matches so I think in this match it is quite clear that Getafe is in a confident condition. Even this club was also able to hold Atletico Madrid to a draw in its last match so that Getafe is quite wary of any club in La Liga.
Yes, it is true that the club which is ranked 8th cannot be said to be consistent and guaranteed to wins because its position is in the middle of the board, but we can see in their last match that Getafe achieved quite good results. While their opponent Rayo is not in good condition because they have not tasted victory in their last 5 matches. So Getafe chances of winning are much greater than Rayo, but a draw can still happen because they are a mid-table club whose prediction of victory is still 50-50.
