Real Madrid look set to claim a comfortable home victory, given their dominant head-to-head record, superior squad depth, and Getafe’s persistent inability to score on the road. Even without Mbappé, Vinicius Junior and Gonzalo García provide more than enough attacking threat to punish a depleted visitors’ backline

Player(s) to watch:
Vinicius Junior has 14 goal involvements across 24 La Liga appearances this season, averaging 0.68 goal contributions per 90 minutes, according to FotMob, which places him firmly among the division’s most dangerous attackers. With Mbappé absent through injury, furthermore, Vinicius steps into the primary threat role at the Bernabéu and, against a Getafe backline already missing suspended captain Djené, his pace and directness from the left flank make him the single most decisive player on the pitch.
Mauro Arambarri has played in every league match this season. He has logged 1,950 minutes in central midfield. This shows he is essential to Getafe’s structure. He does more than just help with the attack. Aramabrri’s tough style consistently breaks the rhythm of the other team. Getafe rely on his pressing and his strength in the air. They need him to stop better midfielders at the Bernabéu
