Real Madrid are up against city rivals, Getafe, in a bid to continue their unbeaten run in the league ahead of a looming El Clasico next week.
Ancelotti's side has played some scintillating football this season and have found solutions in the absence of talisman, Karim Benzema. They come into this game on the back of a dominant 2-1 victory in the Champions league against Shakhtar Donetsk midweek. Their previous La Liga game against Osasuna didn't go to plan and Los Blancos dropped their first points this season after Benzema missed from the spot.
Getafe are currently ranked 15th in the league with 7 points and managing 2 wins from 7 games this season. They come into this game on the back of a close encounter against Real Valladolid, where they lost 3-2.
