In Saturday's La Liga match, Sevilla and Getafe will both be attempting to record their first victories of the 2024–25 campaign.
The visitors are one point ahead of the hosts in 16th place, while the hosts are mired in 19th place with two points.
Sevilla's manager, Garcia Pimienta, has had a challenging start to his tenure at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, as his team has only managed two points from their first four La Liga games.
After his team's 2-2 draw with his previous employers Las Palmas to start the season, Garcia Pimienta watched his team lose 2-1 at home to Villarreal after giving up a goal in stoppage time.
Sevilla continued where it left off to produce another dismal performance that saw it post only a goalless draw against Mallorca before a dismal 2-0 home loss to Girona that extended the unemployment of Garcia Pimienta up to the international break while occupying the bottom relegation zone.
There is always pressure for the head coach especially when the new season is only four games old, and there will surely be demand for the team to do well in the next three successive fixtures against Getafe, Alaves and Real Valladolid.
Garcia Pimienta has played against Getafe only thrice in his managerial career and las Palmas has defeated them by scoring 4 goals in matches while they drew 3 goals both sides in the season 2023-24.
Current champions, Getafe are currently undefeated in this season, though they are still seeking their first victory, their first three matches ended in draw.
Jose Bordalas witnessed his side to a difficult 1-1 away draw in the hands of Athletic Bilbao at San Mames, his team was again involved in a goalless draw in their first home encounter with Rayo Vallecano.
The Azulones fashioned another goalless draw in the final match before the internationals break against Real Sociedad and achieved consecutive clean sheets in the La Liga for the first time since the 23rd of December.
The international break is now over and the next two Getafe are awaiting two fixtures in Seville where the Azulones are scheduled to play Sevilla at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan this Saturday and then face Real Betis the following Wednesday.
The fans that will be on board on Saturday will look back to their last visit to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan in December 2023 where they put up a good performance in the match scoring three goals in a 3-0 win.
Due to a hamstring injury he had while playing for France internationally, Sevilla's Loic Bade is out.
The center defender is not in the game due to injuries to his hamstring and knee, respectively, which also include Albert Sambi Lokonga and Suso.
Saul Niguez is still ineligible to be selected since he is scheduled to serve the second game of a two-game ban.
Valentin Barco, a Brighton & Hove Albion loanee, is expected to stay in the starting lineup after making his debut in the Girona loss.
Omar Alderete, a defender for Getafe, is doubtful for Paraguay's journey to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan due to a knee injury he acquired during Paraguay's victory against Brazil.
