Reigning champions Real Madrid will look to pick up their third LaLiga victory on the bounce when they travel to Getafe on Wednesday night, April 23. SportsCasting gives you a complete rundown of the Matchday 33 encounter, including when and where to watch it live, lineups, head-to-head statistics, and the score prediction. 

Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid crashed out of the UEFA Champions League on April 16, having suffered a 5-1 aggregate defeat to Premier League heavyweights Arsenal. Since Los Blancos always strive to do well in the UCL, the quarter-final elimination has taken a toll on Ancelotti’s job security.

In their first game back in LaLiga, Real Madrid needed an injury-time wonderstrike from Federico Valverde to see off Athletic Bilbao. With the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona fast approaching (Saturday, April 26), Ancelotti must ensure the Whites go into the game on the back of a comfortable victory, not a morale-dampening defeat.

Following Barcelona’s 1-0 win over Mallorca on Tuesday, Real Madrid find themselves seven points adrift of the Blaugrana in the race for the Spanish top-flight title. With only six games left to play, there is simply no room for error.

Getafe vs Real Madrid – Team News & Predicted Lineups

Getafe

Allan Nyom is a doubt for the game after he did not play a part in Getafe’s loss against Espanyol. Uche is suspended for the clash against Los Merengues, but Diego Rico is available for selection after serving his one-match suspension.

Getafe Predicted XI (4-5-1): Soria; Djene, Duarte, Alderete, Rico; Bernat, Milla, Arambarri, Terrats, Iglesias; Juanmi

Real Madrid

Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal are unlikely to feature again this season, while Ferland Mendy and Kylian Mbappe are not fit enough to play against Getafe. The French duo, however, could be in the starting XI for the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona.

Real Madrid Predicted XI (4-3-1-2): Courtois; Vazquez, Asencio, Rudiger, Alaba; Tchouameni, Camavinga, Modric; Brahim; Endrick, Vinicius Junior

Getafe vs Real Madrid – Prediction

Real Madrid have not been formidable this season, and we do not expect them to turn things around in final couple of months. The All-Whites are still the favourites to secure maximum points, but another unconvincing display could be on the cards this Wednesday.

SportsCasting’s Prediction: Getafe 1-2 Real Madrid
