CONFIRMED lineups for Real Madrid v Getafe game

On Sunday, the Santiago Bernabeu will witness an intriguing match-up as Real Madrid, sitting third in La Liga on 30 points, host a desperate Getafe side teetering just above the relegation zone. With Los Blancos chasing league leaders Barcelona and second-placed Atletico Madrid, every point counts in their title pursuit.

Real Madrid enter the fixture on the back of inconsistent form, leaving them four points adrift of the Catalan giants and two shy of their city rivals. Carlo Ancelotti's side will look to capitalise on their superior firepower, but Getafe have proven stubborn opponents, keen to frustrate and snatch crucial points in their battle for survival.

For Getafe, currently 17th and a single point above the relegation spots, this match represents a daunting task. However, the underdogs will hope to exploit any defensive lapses from Madrid, whose focus may already be split between domestic and European ambitions.

Real Madrid's starting XI: Courtois (GK); Vazquez, Ruediger, Asencio, F Garcia; Ceballos, Valverde, Bellingham; Rodrygo, Mbappe and Diaz.

Getafe's starting XI: Soria (GK); Rico, Alderete, Berrocal, Duarte, Iglesias; Arambarri, Milla; Perez, Rodriguez and Nyom.
