Barcelona-Getafe is a match of the 18th day of La Liga and is played on Sunday at 18:30: likely formations, predictions, TV and streaming.
Alone at the top of the table. Five wins in a row and an overall winning streak that has been going on since 26 October. After that Champions League defeat against Bayern Munich, Xavi’s Barcelona never lost again. And in between came the Spanish Super Cup victory in the final against Real Madrid.
Sunday afternoon the Camp Nou will pay due honour to the blaugrana team who managed to bring home a Cup after a long time. And it has also done so against their all-time rivals. In short, the moment is a magical one for Xavi, who has also managed to sell Depay, the player who had no intention of staying at Barcelona and who has left for Madrid, side Atletico. Against Getafe it promises to be a big party first, and then also on the pitch the Catalans should manage to take the three points and thus remain at the top of the La Liga standings alone. Enthusiasm skyrockets, with little argument, and a feeling that it will truly be a match without history.
Not least because Getafe are not in the best of moods: the visitors come from three defeats in a row and are going through a very bad patch, with a league table that is starting to become very worrying. Points are needed to try to stay calm, but none will come. Too strong is Barcelona, who are also doing well mentally as well as physically.

The Prediction
A match that will see Barcelona play almost on velvet. Xavi’s team will take the three points in a challenge that will also give at least three goals in total. Nothing to do for Getafe, who will continue to lose, knowing also that these are not the games to win in order to try to achieve salvation.
