After edging past Las Palmas on Saturday, Real Madrid have another tricky away trip to Getafe on Thursday night.

Madrid fell 1-0 behind on the Canary Islands at the weekend, but goals from Vinicius Junior and substitute Aurelien Tchouameni saw Carlo Ancelotti's side snatch all three points. However, Girona's subsequent victory at Celta Vigo means the capital club are still hunting down Michel's La Liga leaders. Although, a point against Getafe would be enough to take Madrid above Girona.

Getafe, meanwhile, sit firmly in mid-table and have an outside shot of competing for a European berth. Jose Bordalas' side are spiky opponents - boasting the worst disciplinary record in the league - but Madrid have dominated the head-to-head duel in modern times, winning 25 of the previous 29 meetings.

Here's 90min's preview of Real Madrid's upcoming La Liga clash.

Getafe vs Real Madrid score prediction

This is a classic Bordelas-led Getafe side and Madrid will be pleased they're getting this fixture out of the way before the run-in. The capital giants have reigned supreme over their neighbours in recent times, but the upcoming duel is set to be a gritty battle.

The visitors, though, are courageous and simply never know when they're beaten. They'll have lumps kicked out of them in midweek, but Ancelotti's men won't be deterred. This is their chance to climb to the top of La Liga, and they should to take it.

Prediction: Getafe 1-2 Real Madrid
