Getafe and Deportivo look to move away from the relegation zone

Getafe CF and RC Deportivo meet each other on matchday 29 in the Liga BBVA with the threat of relegation fresh in their minds. The hosts have 29 points and are four points above the drop zone, while Depor are in more desperate need, as they are just one point above the relegation zone, so it is vital that they leave the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez with the three points in their pocket. 

Team news 

Pablo Franco has his entire squad available apart from his two injured forwards Karim Yoda and Ángel Lafita, as Mehdi Lacen and Roberto Lago both passed late fitness tests after suffering problems during the week. Depor boss Víctor Fernández has worse luck, as he has four players absent: Alberto Lopo through suspension and Wilk, Helder Postiga and Diogo Salomão through injury. 

View from the dugouts

Getafe boss Pablo Franco: “We are very motivated and committed. We know how important this game is.”
Deportivo coach Víctor Fernández:”We need to isolate ourselves from this dark atmosphere we are experiencing and that way we’ll have a better chance of achieving survival.”
