RCD Espanyol de Barcelona is set to face Getafe CF in a pivotal La Liga clash, with both teams seeking vital points to boost their mid-table standings. Espanyol, on a three-match unbeaten run, will rely on key forwards, Joselu and Raba, to breach Getafe's stingy defense. Getafe, meanwhile, are on a four-match winless streak, and a loss would see them drop further in the table, increasing pressure on manager Míchel.
