Real Madrid returns to La Liga action this weekend when they host local rivals Getafe at the Santiago Bernabeu. Los Blancos face the Azulones following a damaging 2-0 defeat to Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.

Prior to their loss at Anfield, Carlo Ancelotti's team experienced an improvement in their La Liga form. After suffering a devastating 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Barcelona on October 26, Los Blancos recorded back-to-back wins over Osasuna and Leganes.

Those recent results saw Real Madrid close the gap between themselves and league leaders Barcelona to four points. Notably, Los Blancos still have a game in hand over its fierce rivals.

Meanwhile, Getafe, currently placed 15th in La Liga with 13 points, makes the short journey to the Santiago Bernabeu following two successive wins in all competitions. Jose Bordalas's team beat Real Valladolid last weekend in La Liga and followed it up with a 3-0 triumph over Manises in the Copa del Rey on Tuesday.
