Los Blancos are now 12 points clear of Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Sevilla in second, third and fourth place respectively at the top of the table. Carlo Ancelotti’s team head into this clash on the back of five wins in their last six matches in La Liga. Last time out, Real Madrid recorded a 2-1 away win at Celta Vigo.

Veteran forward Karim Benzema has played a key role in their recent good form, as the France international has scored seven goals in his last six matches in La Liga.

Real Madrid have been difficult to beat at the Bernabeu of late, as they have suffered just one league defeat in their last 25 home games in La Liga.

GETAFE

The visitors are just six points clear of the relegation zone as they face their city rivals. Quique Sanchez Flores’ team have won just one of their last seven matches in La Liga. However, Getafe recorded a 1-0 home win over Mallorca last time out in the Spanish top-flight. Their recent league games have been low-scoring, as their last four matches in the league have produced under 2.5 goals scored.

The Azulones have been woeful on their travels in the Spanish top-flight of late, as Getafe have failed to win in their last 18 league matches on their travels in La Liga.
