He Alavés and the Getafe will be measured this Sunday in Mendizorroza In a direct duel for the descent whose victim could end the day in the abyss of positions with access to the Second Division.
The Stadium of the Vitorian team will witness a key confrontation that could match both squads in the classification. He Getafe, with three points ahead of the Alavés, I could lose that little mattress or win an important distance with a victory.
In Alavés, coach Eduardo Coudet has recovered 'In Extremis' to Antonio Sivera. His return allows to have a replacement for the decline of Owono, who suffered a mishap in the ankle in a training this week he failed to recover to enter the call.
Nor is Tomás Conechny on the list, which retired on a stretcher in the last duel against Barcelona, which they lined up despite losing 1-0 in Montjuic. Joan Jordán, who seemed at reappearing doors, is another decline in the call of summoned.
Coudet will be able to count on Abdel's return to the defense after meeting a sanction party. Despite the incorporation of Carles Aleñá, the Catalan midfielder, assigned by Getafe, will not be able to be with his new companions by the fear clause.
The improvement of Alavés with the arrival of Eduardo Coudet has not translated into results and has fallen to descent positions after 59 days in the First Division. Therefore, he needs a victory to scare the ghosts of a descent that no one wants for Mendizorroza.
The Getafe, after the varapalo he suffered in the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey after felling 5-0 against Atlético de Madrid, will try to maintain his ascending line in the league, competition in which he has not yet lost any game since which began 2025.
His two victories against Las Palmas (1-2) and Real Sociedad (0-3) and his two draws in the coliseum against Barcelona (0-0) and Sevilla (0-0), gave a breath of fresh air to the team led by José Bordalás, which still remains close to the descent positions.
That good streak of results has allowed him to obtain a mattress of just three points, a very scarce figure with which he cannot afford many stumbling blocks.
And less in front of a direct rival like Alavés, a club that perfectly knows José Bordalás after his passage through Mendizorro in the 2015/16 season. He achieved a historic promotion to First Division and the directive of the Vitorian team, 23 days after his deed, announced his dismissal.
Sergio Fernández, sports director also at that time, said in those days that the Vitorian club wanted to be fully convinced that professionals who join the project should be “adequate to develop each of their skills.” Bordalás left, in September 2016 he took the reins of Getafe in Second Division, and the rest is already history.
Bordalás said Friday save a great memory of his passage through Alavés. Both of the fans and the club, which he respects with love. But under the umbrella of Getafe, he wants a victory to leave behind a direct rival for permanence and maintain his good streak of 2025 results.
To address the possibility of winning three points, it will have its three signings in the winter market: Ramón Terrats, Juan Bernat and Juanmi Jiménez. Everyone has debuted and as headlines. The first two in Cup against Atlético and the third last day against Sevilla in the League.
Bordalás liked the Terrats presentation letter and could start with Mauro Arambarri in the center of the field; Juanmi will play a position up in the eleven with Borja Mayoral, which aspires to his first ownership after leaving behind a serious injury; and Bernat has options to occupy the left zone in the place of Coba da Costa in a lateral double system (Diego Rico would play in defense).

However, Bordalás has a wide list of doubts. The first, that of his goalkeeper, David Soria, who suffered a nasal fracture against Sevilla and could play with a mask. Just in case, Jirí Letacek is ready to take his position. In addition, Luis Milla and Allan Nyom are among cottons. The rest players are ready to face the challenge of winning in Mendizorroza for the second time: Getafe only added three points in August 2005 with an adjusted victory: 3-4.
