Rafa's date with destiny

Sunday's home meeting with Getafe could prove pivotal for Celta Vigo boss Rafael Benítez

A home meeting with Getafe is a date that only a few Celta Vigo supporters would have marked on the calendar prior to the start of the season. However, for manager Rafael Benítez, the stakes for Sunday’s clash at Balaídos could not be higher. The Spaniard may have only been appointed Celta boss in the summer, but after just eight games in charge, the trap door has already started to creak.
