Getafe visited Hansi Flick's Barcelona at Lluís Companys in matchday seven, with Bordalás's side arriving on 4 points.

Robert Lewandowski put the hosts ahead in the 19th minute with a goal that, according to the match's official records, was Barcelona's 6,500th in the competition's history. Getafe could not find a response and the score did not change for the rest of the match.

Bordalás reshuffled his bench in search of a reaction: Yellu, Aleñá and Álex Sola came off in the 63rd minute, followed by Uche in the 80th and Djené in the 87th. Diego Rico, Keita — who made his La Liga debut —, Mayoral, Arambarri, booked in the 69th, and Bertuğ came on from the bench.

For the hosts, Flick also brought on Gerard Martín, Fort, Ferran Torres and Pedri in place of Cubarsí, Balde, Pablo Torre and Lewandowski himself, who was substituted in the 77th minute after scoring the match's only goal. Raphinha was booked in the 79th.

Referee González Fuertes took charge of the match. The defeat left Getafe stuck on 4 points and dropped them to 19th place in the table.
