The last meeting between the two teams in the league was on 25 October 2021 and Celta claimed a 3-0 win over Getafe at the Estadio Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.
 
Celta are also enjoying a four-match unbeaten run in La Liga matches against Getafe having recorded two successive wins and two consecutive draws. 
 
Meanwhile, Celta succumbed to a narrow 2-1 loss to Real Madrid in their last home match in the league which took place on April 2. 
 
As a result, the Sky Blues are winless in their last two matches in La Liga at home having registered one defeat and one draw.
 
While Getafe suffered a 2-0 defeat to current La Liga log leaders Madrid in their away match that was played on April 9.

The defeat extended the Deep Blues' winless run to 19 matches on the road in this competition having recorded 11 defeats and eight draws. 
 
"We were unable to match the intensity that Real Madrid put into the game. A team that has opted for youth in the midfield with a long way to go," Quique Sanchez Flores, the Getafe manager, said.
 
"Very much in line with how Real Madrid is lately, only multiplying the energy with the entry of Lucas Vazquez, Eduardo Camavinga... guys who remained very solid. We knew that probably either Toni Kroos or Luka Modric were not going to play. 
 
"They showed good physique and a good display. However, Madrid have been in good form."
