There is midweek LALIGA EA SPORTS action coming up this Wednesday and Thursday, as the four clubs that participated in the Spanish Super Cup finally play the Matchday 20 fixtures that were pushed back from the weekend when Real Madrid won the first trophy of this Spanish football season. The super champions will make the short trip to take on Getafe CF on Thursday, while one day before we’ll be able to enjoy FC Barcelona vs CA Osasuna and Atlético de Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano.

The first game in this mini midweek round is the one at the Estadi Olímpic in Montjuïc on Wednesday, kicking off at 19:00 CET. There, Barça and CA Osasuna will meet again, and these two teams played each other when the Spanish Super Cup took place at the beginning of January. They faced off in the semi-final and FC Barcelona won 2-0 thanks to goals from Robert Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal.
Since then, a lot has changed at FC Barcelona, with Xavi announcing that he will step down as coach at the end of this season. The Catalan tactician made that shock announcement following his team’s dramatic 5-3 defeat against Villarreal CF on Saturday, a loss that leaves Los Azulgrana at risk of missing out on Champions League football. Against a CA Osasuna side that has improved of late, Barça will need to put together a good performance to take the three points on offer.
Later on Wednesday night, at 21:00 CET, there is a Madrid derby to savour. Atlético de Madrid will host Rayo Vallecano at the Estadio Cívitas Metropolitano and Los Colchoneros will remember how they thrashed their capital city neighbours 7-0 in Vallecas earlier this season.
Rayo Vallecano, though, has improved a lot in defence since then. Francisco’s team have conceded just 19 goals in the subsequent 18 league games they have played, which is the fourth-best defensive record in LALIGA EA SPORTS in that stretch. On Wednesday, they’ll put that defensive improvement to the test against Diego Simeone’s charges.
On Thursday, there is another Madrid derby when Getafe CF and Real Madrid meet to the south of the capital, for the final game of Matchday 20 and the first of February. Los Blancos know that they can move ahead of Girona FC and take the top spot in the table with a victory, so they’ll make the short trip full of motivation.
It should be a thrilling game to watch, as Real Madrid’s recent outings have been extremely entertaining and full of goals. Each of their past six matches has seen both teams score, producing an average of 5.2 total goals each match. As for Getafe CF, they have been scoring plenty of goals too and have been boosted by the return from the long-term injury of Enes Ünal.
That contest at the Coliseum promises to be the perfect way to bring Matchday 20 to an end and kick off a fascinating February of LALIGA EA SPORTS action.
