| Getafe vs Real Madrid Predicted Line-Up Bellingham and Rodrygo Rested Ahead of Copa del Rey Final. |
JAKARTA – Real Madrid are set for a crucial midweek clash against Getafe in La Liga on Thursday, April 24, 2025, at 02:30 WIB. With just a few games left in the season, Los Blancos are still chasing Barcelona in the race for the league title—and every point now is gold.
Madrid recently pulled off a dramatic win over Athletic Bilbao thanks to Federico Valverde’s 98th-minute goal. That victory gave them a huge boost, but they can’t afford any slip-ups. They're currently four points behind Barcelona, and with the Catalan giants in great form, Carlo Ancelotti must be smart with his squad rotation.
One of the big talking points ahead of this match is the absence of key players Jude Bellingham and Rodrygo. Both will be rested as Madrid prepares for the high-stakes Copa del Rey final against Barcelona. Kylian Mbappe is still out with an ankle injury, which means Madrid's attacking options are limited.
Getafe’s Current Form
Getafe are sitting in 12th place on the La Liga table and have been fairly solid this season. They narrowly lost to Espanyol last weekend but have shown they can be tough opponents—especially at home.
However, they will be without young midfielder Christian Uche, who is suspended after receiving a red card. On the plus side, left-back Diego Rico is back from suspension and ready to strengthen the defense.
Predicted Getafe Line-Up (4-4-2):
Soria (GK); Iglesias, Duarte, Alderete, Rico; Milla, Terrats, Arambarri, Bernat; Mayoral, Juanmi.
Injuries: Allan Nyom (muscle).
Suspensions: Christian Uche.
Real Madrid’s Predicted XI
Carlo Ancelotti is likely to stick with the 4-4-2 diamond formation that worked well against Athletic Club. Rodrygo will be benched due to poor form, and Brazilian wonderkid Endrick is expected to start up front alongside Vinicius Jr.
In midfield, Arda Guler and Brahim Diaz will step in for Bellingham and Camavinga. David Alaba will replace Antonio Rudiger in defense, while Fran Garcia keeps his place at left-back with Ferland Mendy still injured. Lucas Vazquez is expected to captain the side in Dani Carvajal’s absence.
Predicted Real Madrid Line-Up (4-4-2 diamond):
Courtois (GK); Vazquez, Asencio, Alaba, F. Garcia; Valverde, Tchouameni, B. Diaz, Guler; Endrick, Vinicius Jr.
Injuries: Mbappe (ankle), Mendy (hamstring), Carvajal & Militao (ACL).
Suspensions: None.
