Getafe vs Real Madrid Prediction, 02:00 October 20: Victory within reach

Pre-match review Getafe vs Real Madrid

Getafe are off to a decent start in La Liga 2025/26, picking up 11 points from their first eight games. However, Getafe's recent form has been showing signs of slowing down. After a 1-0 win over Real Oviedo in mid-September, the Madrid suburbs haven't won another game, picking up just two points from their last four games.

A 1-1 draw at home to Levante and a 0-1 defeat to Osasuna before the international break showed that their attack is lacking in sharpness. Returning after the international break, Getafe have to face a huge challenge in the form of Real Madrid. Although playing at home, the blue team has little hope of gaining points when facing the "big guys" of the capital.

On the other side of the front line, Real Madrid are showing destructive form under Xabi Alonso. With 21 points after 8 matches, they are temporarily leading the rankings, 2 points ahead of Barcelona. After the humiliating defeat against Atletico Madrid, Los Blancos defeated Kairat and Villarreal convincingly before the break with scores of 5-0 and 3-1 respectively. Another victory will help Alonso and his students consolidate the top position, creating a solid psychological momentum for the upcoming two big battles with Juventus and Barcelona.

Although Getafe are often extremely difficult to play at home, but against a Real Madrid team that is on the rise in form and squad depth, their ability to create a surprise is very fragile. Los Blancos are aiming for a neat 3 points, both to maintain their winning streak and to confirm that this season's championship race is still within their control.
