Getafe vs Levante Match Preview

Both Getafe and Levante started the tournament with the wrong feet and will be anxious to celebrate their first point in this year's fight. Getafe might be the favorite for this clash, but Levante's compromising situation might turn the tides on their favor, as the players are ready to surprise everyone on this week's trip to Madrid. The Coliseum Alfonso Perez will host one a match in which much more than three points will be in play: Levante needs to start adding units for the relegation fight while Getafe has a clear objective of fighting for a place within Europe's best, but RCD Espanyol exposed every weakness in Geta the last week and thus team's coach might have a lot to think prior to this game. Daniel Parejo and Borja are the main engine in Getafe's machinery, but their performance left the crowds rather disappointed during the first match. Ghana's midfielder Derek Boateng might have another shot to take the advance on his back and lead Getafe towards the victory.

Luis García Plaza's boys are aware they are between a rock and a hard place. There's only room for the best in the League of Stars, and Levante should consolidate its strategy soon not to be drifting at the bottom of the positions table. Rubén Suárez, Juanlu, and Xisco Nadal will be Levante's offensive trident, and they'll have to face a tough defense in Madrid. Team's coach is aware Manu del Moral is without a doubt Getafe's deadliest striker, and he could be Geta's most prolific striker in all history by scoring another goal. To bear with this, Plaza is likely to adopt a defensive formation, focusing on the attack when Getafe's defense concedes some spaces to create.

Getafe vs Levante Match Report

The Azulones took advantage of Levante's mistake from the dawn of the game and made it impossible for the new comers to have a single chance at the Coliseum. Jaime Gavilan and Adrian Colunga minutes later opened a two point advantage for the local side on the first 10 minutes of the match. Rafa Jorda scored for Levante minutes later and from that moment on the game froze: Both sides were exhausted by the intense first quarter of an hour and Getafe just decided to wait for Levante to make another mistake.

Sergio Ballesteros was the leader of Levante's defense and his expertise allowed the team to even dream with an equalizer during most of the game. Luis Garcia was running out of ideas and his modifications didn't pay off during the second half. When everything was settled, Gavilan celebrated another goal. Angel Arizmendi, just recovered from an injury joined the team and score his first goal to excite the crowds. 4-1 and the leadership for Getafe, determined to play within the best.
