Overview.
This will be the first competitive meeting between Krasnodar and Getafe. Including qualifiers, FC Krasnodar have lost just one of their four home encounters against Spanish opposition in European competition (W2 D1 L1), including a 2-1 victory against Sevilla and a 1-1 draw with Valencia, both in last season’s Europa League. FC Krasnodar’s 0-5 defeat at Basel on MD1 was their worst result across all European competition in the club’s history. Getafe are looking to win three straight UEFA Cup/Europa League matches for the first time since March 2008 under manager Michael Laudrup. 32-year-old Getafe striker Ángel Rodríguez has scored in three consecutive Europa League matches, two for Levante in 2012 and once on MD1. Only four other players have scored in their fourth successive game Europa League when at least 32 years of age: Frederic Kanoute, Kris Commons, Aritz Aduriz and Olivier Giroud.

Teams Comparison.
Ahead of Europa League (EL) matchday two, Krasnodar find themselves winless in four European home matches across all tiers. That noted, they have also avoided a loss in seven domestic home matches (W6, D1), scoring over 1.5 goals in seven league games this season. However, having not scored over 1.5 home goals in four European matches on home soil, the ‘Bulls’ last netted over 2.5 home European goals against Spaniards (Sevilla) to give Manager Murad Musayev a career-third 2-1 EL scoreline at home (EL career: W4, D3, L4).
After a ten-year absence from European action, Getafe beat Trabzonspor 1-0 at home in their manager’s first European match. Losing just two domestic games so far (W1, D4, L2), it’s worth noting that Getafe have scored first in eight of 15 competitive away games across all competitions (W2, D8, L5). Scoring over 1.5 goals in one-third of those competitive away games, Getafe are somewhat an unknown quantity here. However, with both teams scoring in 13 of the Azulones’ last 18 domestic competitive awaydays, this matchup may hinge upon the first goalscorer.
