Getafe vs Real Madrid: Predictions, tips & betting odds

Spanish champions Real Madrid make the short trip to Getafe on Saturday night as Carlo Ancelotti's men aim to get back to winning ways in La Liga.

Los Blancos dropped their first points of the campaign last weekend, drawing 1-1 at home to Osasuna, but are clear favourites to record a win against a Getafe team who have picked up seven points from a possible 21 at the start of the season.

Los Azulones were beaten 3-2 at home by struggling Valladolid last weekend and are offered at 11/2 (6.50) by bet365 to pull off a shock against their neighbours from the north of the Spanish capital.

The visitors for their part are priced at 1/2 (1.50) with the draw available at 10/3 (4.33).

Getafe vs Real Madrid first goal scorer odds

Karim Benzema returned from injury last weekend but failed to score against both Osasuna and Shakhtar Donetsk in midweek in the Champions League.

Nevertheless, the Frenchman is the favourite to break the deadlock at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez, priced at 13/5 (3.60).

Vinicius Junior meanwhile is in impressive scoring form with five goals in seven league appearances and the Brazilian is available at 4/1 (5.00) ahead of his compatriot Rodrygo Goes at 13/2 (7.50).

Getafe's Turkish international striker Enes Unal scored 16 times last season and already has two strikes to his name.

The former Villarreal forward can be backed at 8/1 (9.00) to net first.

Getafe vs Real Madrid preview

Quique Sanchez Flores' side have not made the most impressive start to the campaign, although they have looked better since reverting back to their tried and tested 5-3-2 formation a few weeks ago.

Even in matches where they have not played well Getafe have managed to score, netting in five of their seven league encounters, with Los Azulones scoring at least two goals in their last three games.

Real Madrid for their part have conceded in every league game they have played and with goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois a major injury doubt for the game, there should be plenty of interest in backing the hosts to get on the score sheet.

Getafe vs Real Madrid tips and predictions

Both teams to score has paid out in all seven of Real Madrid's La Liga matches this season and a repeat is priced at the extremely healthy-looking odds of 19/20 (1.95).
