Real Madrid host Getafe in a meaningless game for Los Blancos, but not for Getafe. Bordalas’ team are fighting to avoid relegation and will surely put up a fight, while Ancelotti is expected to make heavy rotations as he wants to keep his regular starters fresh and healthy for next Wednesday’s match against Manchester City in the return leg of the Champions League Semifinals.
Getafe need every bit of help they can get, and while Real Madrid won’t directly offer them any assistance, the timing of this game definitely favors Bordalas and his men. Rodrygo, Benzema and Carvajal aren’t even available and veterans like Kroos and Modric will almost certainly sit on the bench.
Madrid have nothing to play for in this one and should just punt on this inconvenient game. On the other hand, City must remain competitive as they’re still fighting for the Premier League title. Ancelotti should take advantage of his fact and rest almost every single starter.
