Real Madrid are on a tremendous run of form, with five straight La Liga matches with a win.
Will our AI algorithm predict Real Madrid to defeat Getafe for a sixth straight La Liga victory?
Los Blancos will make the short trip to the Coliseum Alfonso Perez to face off with Getafe on Thursday night. Madrid can go top of the table with a win over Getafe. Carlo Ancelotti’s team is just one point away from first-place Girona.
Getafe are coming off a 2-0 win over Granada. The victory ended a three-game winless streak. Los Azulones are 10th in the division, with 29 points.
The club is well off the race for European football. However, Getafe will be happy that this season is far more comfortable and not battling against relegation.
Real Madrid posted a 2-1 win over Getafe earlier this season. It was a come-from-behind victory for Los Blancos, as they went behind to Getafe in the 11th minute thanks to a goal from Borja Mayoral.
Ancelotti made the right changes at halftime and Madrid levelled the score on 47 minutes thanks to Joselu. With the game set for a draw, Jude Bellingham popped up with the winner in the 94th minute.
Real Madrid outshot Getafe by a score of 26-6. Madrid also kept over 76% possession. Although the match finished 2-1, the trend between these teams in recent years was that of low-scoring games.
Five of the last six matches between the clubs finished with under 2.5 goals. Moreover, four of the last five matches saw both teams NOT score.
Getafe will provide a strong opposition for Madrid playing at home. Los Azulones won four of their last five games at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez.
However, Madrid are playing excellent football on the road. Los Blancos have a record of 8W-2D-1L away from the Bernabeu. They won their last two away fixtures by a combined score of 3-1.
Getafe manager Jose Bordalas will be without Mauro Arambarri due to an ACL injury. Mayoral is the Getafe goal scoring stats leader, with 14.
The forward is tied for first in goal scoring this season in La Liga. Controversial player, Mason Greenwood, is second on the team in goal stats with four.
Ancelotti has no fresh injuries going into the match. Bellingham has 14 goals this term, which is level with Mayoral for the league lead.
The last six matches between Getafe and Madrid were close and our AI prediction is for another close encounter between the rivals.
Real Madrid should find a winning goal once more, however. Los Blancos should post a 2-1 victory over Getafe and go top of the table.
