Getafe's Must-Win Situation:
Getafe faces a must-win situation in order to have any hopes of avoiding relegation this season. Elche has always posed challenges for the Getafe team, and today's match will be no different. Enes Unal, the Turkish forward, has performed well in recent matches, and it is expected that he will make an impact in today's game. As Getafe's primary penalty taker and set-piece specialist, Unal is always a threat in the attacking phase, particularly in aerial duels. Despite Getafe's defensive focus, they will likely attempt to launch dangerous attacks, as they are obliged to defeat the bottom-placed team, which will likely play with nothing to lose.
