Other Comments:

Ferland Mendy: "We came here to win but we drew and qualified, so we're happy."

Squad Updates:

This will be the Forty third game of the season and Real have been inconsistent in the matches and so has been the results, they have had 26 wins, 8 Draws and 8 losses. In the last few games except the last three, the performance has been poor especially in attack and with this ailing team it is not making the run any easier.

Getafe is an attacking side and are good in the defense, so Real will need to be careful in both departments and be ready for their counters.

In the goal Courtois will start, he has been in a good form. He has supported the defense very well but has not received the same support back from the team and more so with so many changes owing to the injuries in defense.

Mendy should start on the left. As Ramos is out injured and Nacho is suspended Militao and Varane should start, it is expected that Varane will recover from COVID. Carvajal is now back and might play. So Mendy, Varane, Militao and Odriozola should start. Carvajal, Marcelo and Chust should be available as substitutes.

Modric has been a bit off pace in the last few games but was in control and the performance in the last few games have been great. Same goes with Kroos, who has been exceptional. So, Kroos and Modric should start. As Casemiro is suspended due to Red card, he will be replaced by Valverde. Isco, Arribas and Blanco should start from the bench.

The forwards have been poor all season except, they have been wasting many chances in front of the goal. Hazard is possibly back but might not start and Vinicius should start on the left, being good in the last three games. With Asensio playing well, he should get his chance ahead of Rodrygo. And Benzema should start upfront.

As there are 5 substitutions available, ZZ should think for more rotations in the second half especially taking into consideration the team's fatigue and injuries.

The probable substitutions will be:

Vinicius > Hazard

Modric > Isco

Asensio > Rodrygo

Kroos > Marcelo

Benzema > Mariano

So the formation would be 4 3 3.

The most probable kit to be used for the game will be the home kit!!!

So the final starting 11 will be:

Varane OUT <> Chust IN

Mendy OUT <> Marcelo IN

Real Madrid vs Manchester City: The Starting 11

Before going into the next Match I will rate the performance of players in the last game vs Levante. Benzema: 3/10, Only misses and bad finishes, final third game play missing. Hazard: 4/10, created a few chances, missed a sure 1 on 1 chance, got injured again Isco: 5/10, too much 1-2 passes and final third game play missing, need to release quicker. Good distribution outside the box. Modric: 7/10, did his bit, created ample chances, could have pressed better for the goal, but was surely a wonder strike Casemiro: 8/10, did all he was supposed to do, took a yellow when required, made his presence felt in the attack as well, could have headed it home but missed. Kroos: 6/10, good first half, lacked the precision in the second half and after the goal seemed lost. Seemed he was out of gas. Marcelo: 7/10, did very well to be honest, some defensive lapses were there but with the amount of offensive positioning it is expected. Need to get better in crossing than this but hardly any

Real Betis Vs Real Madrid: The Starting 11

Before going into the next match I will rate the performance of players in the last game vs Barcelona in the El Clasico. Benzema: 5/10, Poor game that has very less involvement, only misses and bad finishes, final third game play was better than previous game but still not up to the mark. Vinicius: 9/10, Became the youngest to score in the El Clasico, had several good plays. The early yellow could have made him a little cautious but played his heart out and recovered 3-4 balls for the team. Isco: 8.5/10, Good game and a few good runs, a great shot at goal which was stopped by the keeper. He was good in distribution as well, could have taken a few more chances but was a bit of communication problem with Marcelo. Kroos: 8/10, Seemed the one to orchestrate the game. Great assist in the first goal and maintained composure throughout the game, even under pressure, coordinated well with attack and defence really well. Casemiro: 8.5/10, What a game! With an assist or goal he would hav
