Valencia and Getafe will battle for three points in a lunchtime kick-off in La Liga matchday 35 on Saturday (May 10th). The game will be played at Estadio de Mestalla.
The hosts will be looking to build on the 3-2 away victory they registered over Las Palmas last weekend. They went ahead through Hugo Duro's 22nd-minute strike while Sandro Ramirez equalized through a VAR-awarded penalty in first-half injury time. Duro completed his brace shortly before the hour mark while Alex Suarez's own goal made it 3-1 with 15 minutes to go. Oliver McBurnie pulled one back for the home side in the 83rd minute.
Getafe, meanwhile, fell to a 1-0 defeat away to Rayo Vallecano. Florian Lejeune's seventh-minute strike settled the contest.
The loss left Los Azulones in 13th spot in the standings, having garnered 39 points from 34 games. Valencia are three points better off, directly above them.
Valencia were in danger of relegation when Carlos Corberan was appointed in December. However, the 42-year-old has overseen such an upturn in fortunes that Los Che are now in the conversation for continental qualification. They sit just two points behind the top eight with four games to go.
Getafe, for their part, are seemingly out of contention for Europe despite sitting just behind their hosts. Jose Bordelas' side have paid the price for losing their last four league games on the bounce and the 61-year-old will be hoping to end that run against his former side.
We are backing the home side to claim a narrow win and a clean sheet.
Prediction: Valencia 1-0 Getafe
Tip 1 - Valencia to win
Tip 2 - Both teams to score: No
Tip 3 - Under 2.5 goals
