Barcelona are aiming for their 29th La Liga title and their third in a row under manager Xavi Hernandez. The Catalan giants have strengthened their squad with the signings of Ilkay Gundogan, Oriol Romeu, and Inigo Martinez, while also retaining their star players like Robert Lewandowski, Pedri, and Raphinha.
Last year, Getafe's survival came down to the final day, but they were able to finish two points ahead of Real Valladolid in 18th place to maintain their position in the division. With the additions of Omar Alderete, Gaston Alvarez, Portu, Choco Lozano, Sergi Altimira, Jose Angel Carmona, and Daniel Fuzato, Jose Bordalas' team has been active in the transfer market this summer. The Madrid-based club will look to improve on their poor performance in their last three seasons where they barely managed to stay up.
