Getafe vs Rayo Vallecano preview - Trio set for Getafe bow

Getafe could hand first starts to three of their star summer signings as they go in search of their first victory of the season at home to Rayo Vallecano.

Diego Castro, Dani Guiza and Pedro Leon have all been kept out through injury - and, in the latter's case, as part of his loan agreement from Real Madrid - in recent weeks but look set to make their bow in the Madrid derby tomorrow lunchtime.

However manager Luis Garcia, who will begin his two-game touchline ban after being sent to the stands at the Bernabeu last weekend, has warned that he will have to use Guiza and Leon wisely with three important games coming up in the next week.

He said, "They could start but I don't think they are ready to play three matches in a week yet. I don't think they are ready for 90 minutes so if I start both of them then two of my substitutions are already made.

"They will take part in the three games and they will start one of them for sure. They are not 100% but they are ready to help the team."

Garcia will also be able to count on the services of Alberto Lopo and Michel, both of whom missed the 4-2 defeat by Real Madrid last time out.

Rayo head to the Coliseum with confidence after positive signs in their first two matches back in the Primera Division. Striker Raul Tamudo could make his first start for the club tomorrow and he has been encouraged by his side's start to the campaign.

"We're desperate to win our first match, we could have already done so in the previous two games and therefore we have to continue in the same manner," he said. "So far we have given a good impression and if we keep playing like that, sooner or later the victory will come."

Rayo manager Jose Sandoval's only injury worry is defender Alejandro Arribas, who missed his side's final training session yesterday with a muscle injury.
