Getafe hosted Borja Jiménez's Leganés at the Coliseum in matchday six, arriving on 3 points.

The match stayed goalless until the closing stages, when Jorge Sáenz put the visitors ahead in the 76th minute with a goal that, according to the match's official records, was also his first in La Liga. Getafe reacted quickly and, seven minutes later, Mayoral, who had just come on from the bench, levelled the score by converting a penalty in the 83rd minute.

Bordalás had already reshuffled his line-up before the goal: Yellu came off at half-time, and Djené, booked in the 56th minute, and Uche went off in the 67th; Bertuğ was the last change, in the 78th. Carles Pérez, Álex Sola, Mayoral — who would go on to score the equaliser — and Risco came on from the bench. Arambarri, booked in the 53rd, and Diego Rico, booked in the 63rd, completed the list of home bookings.

For the visitors, Óscar Rodríguez, already booked in the 20th minute, went off at half-time; Tapia, Munir, Juan Cruz and Miguel came off as the match progressed, replaced by Brašanac, Roberto López, Raba, Franquesa and Haller. Nastasić was booked in the 79th, with Leganés still ahead on the scoreboard.

Referee Cordero Vega took charge of a match that, according to the official records, also marked Álex Sola's 50th appearance in La Liga. The final 1-1 left Getafe on 4 points and in 18th place in the table.
