Victory for Real Madrid on Sunday will guarantee their spot at the top of La Liga when they host Barcelona in the first El Clásico of the season next weekend.
Barça were the favorites to retain their crown entering 2025–26, but injuries have so far conspired against them and a 4–1 defeat at Sevilla meant Madrid kept their place at the top after they beat Villarreal 3–1 before the break.
However, Xabi Alonso’s side cannot look too far ahead. While they’ve dominated this fixture over the past decade, Getafe can be stubborn and nasty opposition for Spain’s top dogs, and they’ll be keen to restore some momentum after a four-game winless run in the league.
