Real Madrid will look to regain top spot in La Liga when they go head-to-head with Getafe on Thursday (February 1).
Getafe picked up a morale-boosting result on Monday, beating Granada 2-0 at home. Before that, Jose Bordalas’ side were on a two-game losing streak, suffering a 3-1 defeat to Sevilla in the Copa del Rey on January 16, five days before losing 3-2 at Osasuna.
With 29 points from 21 games, Getafe are tenth in the league but could move level with eighth-placed Valencia with all three points.
Real Madrid, meanwhile, came from behind to secure a 2-1 victory over Las Palmas at the Gran Canaria on Saturday. Carlo Ancelotti’s men have won nine of their last 10 games, a run that saw them clinch the Supercopa de Espana, courtesy of a 4-1 win over rivals Barcelona in the final on January 14.
