Real Madrid Vs Getafe: The Starting 11






The upcoming match is against Getafe at home in the La liga match day 33. Getafe are 6th on the leader-board and Real are 1st and just 2 points more than Barcelona on the league table. This game is one of the most important game that will decide the league, Madrid can not take any risks at all and have to win at all costs if they want to remain in the contention.

Real Madrid had won 0-3 away from home in the first leg.

Looking at the 

Injury list:
  1. Lucas Vazquez
  2. Jovic
  3. Reiner Jesus
Suspended:
  1. None
Just recovered:
  1. Nacho
Practiced:

The  rest of the team is available. 

Skipped Practice:
  • None
Coach Comments:
  • To be updated. 
Other Comments:
  • Overall team play was weak and were not able to convert many chances nor were able to create many. The team needs to step up against a good team.
Squad Updates:


This is a crucial game for the league title as the margin is just 2 points and several difficult games lined up for both teams, Real has to be very careful in selecting the team and go full throttle to get the 3 points.  

In the goal Courtois will start, he has been in a good form and needs to keep this up.

Ramos and Varane will start as the center backs, though Ramos needs some rest but this game would be very tough and needs his mentor-ship on the field. Mendy was not available last game and will be fresh to start.So, Mendy will start on the left and will provide better defensive option and Carvajal will start on the right. So Mendy, Ramos, Varane and Carvajal should start. Defence has been in good form but there were few errors which went unpunished in the last game. So, the defence will have to be very careful.

All the mid-fielders are available now, Modric is fresh and available after the game off last time due to suspension. And he should start, so it is going to be Kroos, Casemiro and Modric in the middle. Valverde, Isco and James will be on the bench and will come handy in the second half. With matches coming thick and fast these substitutions will be key to maintaining the fitness and avoid fatigue.

As forwards have in good shape but still not converted many chances, it is going to be a difficult decision for ZZ. Vinicius was rested last game and will be fresh to start, and with Hazard seeming a bit tired needs a short break. So Vinicius, Benzema and Rodrygo should start, and Mariano, Bale and Asensio should be on the bench.

As there are 5 substitutions available, ZZ should think for more rotation in the second half.

The probable substitutions will be: 

Rodrygo > Asensio
Vinicius > Hazard
Modric > James
Kroos > Isco
Casemiro > Valverde
Benzema > Mariano/Bale
Ramos > Militao

So the formation would be 4 3 3.

So the final starting 11 will be:
