Barcelona will look to get back on track to victory in LaLiga when they travel to Coliseum Alfonso Pérez on Saturday night to face Getafe.
Ronald Koeman’s team is currently fifth in the table with seven points to show in their three games, while Getafe is seventh with seven points in their four games this season.
🖊 Match preview
After a dizzying summer that culminated with Lionel Messi pushing the starting gates and Koeman returning to his old club in less than ideal circumstances, the Dutchman has done well to stabilize the boat a bit.
Three unbeaten matches thus far make a positive reading, with a 1-1 draw against Sevilla the last time that was the only blemish on Koeman’s flawless start in the Camp Nou hot seat.
Currently, Barça is fifth in the standings with Getafe just two places behind, but tied on points. José Bordalas’s men are in good shape, although their record of 15 games without a win against Barça sums up the scale of the task at hand this weekend.
The Catalan club is averaging three goals per game in that streak (which dates back to November 2011) and has triumphed in its four previous visits to the Alfonso Pérez Coliseum. Will they get five on the lap?
