Real Madrid's makeshift backline survived a few nervy moments

playBurley calls out Real Madrid's poor decision-making vs
Getafe (2:26)Craig Burley calls out Real Madrid players for thinking like individuals instead of a team in their nervy win over Getafe in LaLiga
The 18-year-old earned his first LaLiga start since arriving at Madrid in July 2024 and had two chances to score during the match
The second opportunity came in the 55th minute, when he had Getafe goalkeeper David Soria left to beat. The failed attempt upset manager Ancelotti, causing him to scold the young Brazil international for "clowning around."
Endrick attempted to chip the ball over the keeper but failed miserably with the ball going straight into his hands

"He couldn't have done any better with the first one
he may have been offside but he can't be doing that
"He's young and he has to learn but he has to shoot as well as possible and quit clowning around
There's no room for drama club in football."
Endrick also had the opportunity to assist teammate Arda Güler -- the scorer of Madrid's goal -- to put his side 2-0 up
but instead attempted to find the back of the net himself
Ancelotti took Endrick off in the 64th minute and replaced him with Jude Bellingham
The forward has scored seven goals in 33 games in all competitions for Real Madrid since joining on a permanent transfer from Palmeiras last summer
Madrid are second in LaLiga, four points adrift of Barcelona with five league games remaining
Ancelotti's men are back in action on Saturday when they face rivals Barça in the Copa del Rey final in Seville
Real Madrid's quest to stay in La Liga's title race continues on Wednesday at Getafe
where they aim to keep pace with Barcelona in the final weeks of the season
Wednesday's game in the middle of a crucial few weeks at Real Madrid
potentially one that will define their season – and mark the end of an era
This month's crushing UEFA Champions League elimination by Arsenal brought an end to one trophy chase
all while raising doubts about Los Blancos' ability to lift any silverware this season
It is a surprising turn of events when considering the expectations that were on them at the start of the campaign
though the up-and-down results that have come over the last eight months validate those concerns
Sunday's 1-0 win against Athletic Club was flawed but important
re-establishing Real Madrid's credentials as a contender for both La Liga's top prize and the Copa del Rey
The result means Los Blancos entered Matchday 33 within touching distance of Barcelona
Staying in the title race for at least another few days will be crucial
especially in the buildup to the Copa del Rey final on Saturday against Barcelona
when both teams will have their first chance to nab major silverware this season

Here's what you need to know before tuning in
Getafe: Eight points above the relegation zone with six games to go
it's fair to say that 12th place Getafe are going to spend the rest of the season in a holding pattern of sorts with little on the line in this game
Diego Rico and Christantus Uche will miss the game and Borja Mayoral may not be ready to play all 90 minutes
Finding themselves in the middle of a crucial period for Real Madrid
Getafe manager Jose Bordalas admitted that the odds may not be in their favor
"I always say it's never a good time to face Real Madrid," he said in his pre-match press conference on Tuesday
"They're one of the best teams in the world and are still in the game in two competitions
It's never a good time; we know the difficulties
Real Madrid: Carlo Ancelotti's side head into this game as the favorites and can get away with another imperfect outing as long as they collect all three points
though they will have to do so without Kylian Mbappe through a minor injury
Though there's something ordinary about a matchup between the title-chasing second-place team and their counterparts in 12th
the game carries plenty of weight outside the title race
It is increasingly likely that Ancelotti will leave Real Madrid ahead of next season
though there is chatter that he might bid farewell as soon as this weekend after the Copa del Rey final
Wednesday's game is sure to be one of the final games for Ancelotti at the club and this end-of-season period could be a true tone-setter for his successor
The incoming manager already has a big task ahead of them with this squad
but the prospect of a trophyless season will potentially make the next boss' job harder than it already will be
This is Real Madrid's game to lose and even though they have been inconsistent all season long and considering the stakes
it feels very unlikely that they will not come out with all three points
As has been the case with them this season
it may not be a particularly thrilling game so expect a modest scoreline

Arda Guler scored his second league goal of the season
Arda Guler scored the only goal as Real Madrid defeated Getafe to cut Barcelona's lead at the top of La Liga to four points
After suffering elimination from the Champions League at the hands of Arsenal last week
Carlo Ancelotti and his players were under growing pressure to make something of this season
A composed - if unspectacular - performance on a night when nothing but a win would do eased anxieties somewhat
Jude Bellingham started on the bench as Ancelotti made six changes to his team with an eye on Saturday's Copa del Rey final against Barcelona
while Kylian Mabppe missed out with an ankle issue
Guler finished off a swift Real Madrid break with a rifled effort in the 21st minute that Getafe goalkeeper David Soria couldn't keep out despite getting a hand to it
Endrick looked set to mark his first La Liga start with a goal when Vinicius Jr put him one-on-one with Soria
but Djene Dakonam cleared off the line after the goalkeeper got a hand to the effort
and were fortunate that Getafe didn't equalise after the break
Substitute Alvaro Rodriguez first went close with a header
before Mauro Arambarri dragged a low shot wide after Rodriguez picked him out unmarked
the best of which saw Vinicius ignore the runs of Bellingham and Brahim Diaz to force Soria to tip his effort over the bar
The match paused briefly with 13 minutes remaining when the referee spoke to both managers and a police officer on the touchline after Real Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni approached him
A message asking fans to avoid using racist language was subsequently played over the public announcement system
Getafe almost snatched a draw in the sixth minute of stoppage time
but Thibaut Courtois produced a brilliant save to keep out Rodriguez's low effort on the turn
Victory means Madrid trail league leaders Barcelona by four points with five games left to play - they face each other on 11 May

Here's what Real Madrid's XI could look like against Getafe on Apr
GK: Thibaut Courtois—The Belgian keeper is in line to start the rest of Los Blancos' matches this season
RB: Lucas Vázquez—The Spaniard will likely return to starting XI after playing just seven minutes at the weekend
CB: Raúl Asencio—The former Real Madrid Castilla star has become one of Ancelotti's most trusted players
CB: David Alaba—Starting Alaba gives Antonio Rüdiger some much-needed rest ahead of the Copa del Rey final
LB: Fran García—García's days at Real Madrid might be numbered
but he is still up to the task of locking down the left flank against Getafe
RM: Brahim Díaz—Díaz is one of Real Madrid's fringe players looking to get some valuable minutes in Wednesday's clash
Ancelotti could also opt to start Dani Ceballos or Luka Modrić in his place should he wish for a traditional midfielder instead
DM: Fede Valverde—Fresh off scoring the winner against Athletic Bilbao
Valverde returns to the midfield where he will look to control the tempo of the match at the Estadio Coliseum
DM: Aurélien Tchouaméni—The Frenchman won Real Madrid's Player of the Month award for March and is back to his best form now that he no longer has to play as an emergency center back
LM: Jude Bellingham—Bellingham came up empty at the weekend despite a few glorious chances in the second half
The England international will hope to put in a more clinical performance against Getafe
ST: Rodrygo—The pressure is on the Brazilian to finally produce in La Liga or else he risks losing his starting spot for the Copa del Rey final
ST: Vinícius Júnior—The winger was Real Madrid's best player against Athletic Bilbao and should have little trouble exploiting Getafe's leaky backline
just three days ahead of their Copa del Rey final against Barcelona on April 26

Ahead of this crucial game in the title race
French internationals Kylian Mbappé and Ferland Mendy made their return to team training following their injuries
they won't feature against Los Azulones while focusing on a return to action for the Copa del Rey on Saturday
Carlo Ancelotti may be tempted to rotate his squad
as he suggested during his pre-game press conference
to avoid any injury setbacks ahead of the final against Barcelona
Here is the predicted lineup for Real Madrid ahead of the game against city rivals Getafe
IMAGO / XinhuaGK: Thibault Courtois - The Belgian goalkeeper has been excellent since returning from injury recently
and he should start against Getafe tomorrow
RB: Lucas Vasquez - The Spaniard has had difficulties in this position this season and has seen midfielder Federico Valverde being Ancelotti's preferred option in big games
the Uruguay international should be rested before the Copa Del Rey final on Saturday
CB: Antonio Rudiger - The German defender should start and partner with Alaba in the heart of Madrid's defence while Asencio is rested ahead of the final
CB: David Alaba - The Austria international behind Rudiger and Raul Asencio in the center-back hierarchy this season will likely not start in the final on Saturday and should
LB: Fran Garcia - Fran Garcia is set to start against Getafe
though his coach might opt for Camavinga or Alaba at this position while the Spaniard is rested
CDM: Aurélien Tchouaméni - The Frenchman is Madrid's midfield anchor this season despite his numerous stints in defense
he put up another solid performance against Bilbao and will be expected to reproduce this performance against Getafe
CM: Luka Modric - His coach might be tempted to rest Modric ahead of the Copa del Rey final
his importance in Madrid's system has been increasing lately and the Croatian will certainly start this game and be substituted after 60 minutes
CM: Eduardo Camavinga - The Frenchman could earn a starting berth against Getafe
Ancelotti might give Dani Ceballos more minutes ahead of the Copa del Rey final
RW: Arda Guler - With Ancelotti set to rotate his squad
the Turkish international could start against Getafe while Rodrygo or Vini Jr
- Vinicius Junior might be rested for this game; Ancelotti will not rotate his squad too much as they continue their chase of Barcelona
ST: Endrick - Since joining Real Madrid last summer
the Brazilian international has been given limited opportunities to shine and showcase his talent
Kylian Mbappé's absence may give him another chance

Getafe vs Real Madrid: 5 Classic La Liga Games
Los Blancos enter the game after a last-ditch league win against Athletic Bilbao (1-0)
Carlo Ancelotti's side are second in the league table with 69 points from 32 matches
They are seven points behind league leaders Barcelona after they won on April 22
and have very little room to slip up if they are to catch up
The two Madrid sides have had very different runs of form in the last five matches

Real Madrid have won four of their last five
have won two and lost three of their last five matches
It's an important clash for both teams for different reasons. Ahead of the game, let's have a look at the odds and prediction for the contest. (odds via Draftkings)
Real Madrid will be without Kylian Mbappe for the La Liga clash against Getafe
With the Copa del Rey final set for April 26
Carlo Ancelotti might also look to rotate his side a bit to keep them fresh for the El Clásico
Ferland Mendy will also miss the game and Brahim Diaz and Fran Garcia could be expected to fill in for the two absent French players
Diaz will look to prove a point and partner well alongside Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo
Los Blancos haven't been the best defensive side this season
haven't been efficient in front of the goal
They might find one against their Madrid rivals due to their defensive lapses
Carlo Ancelotti's side have shown might in the attacking front
Against a Getafe defense that has let in 29 goals
and Jude Bellingham could start in midfield against Getafe
That lineup could see Los Blancos go more direct against Getafe and hunt the goal down early in the game
They will aim to create a winning margin in the first half and rest their key players in the second half to keep them fresh for the cup final
Real Madrid are predicted to walk away with a comfortable win and keep the pressure up on league leaders Barcelona

Getafe vs Real Madrid Odds and Predictions
Real Madrid Revealed To Have Low Percentage Chance Of Winning The La Liga Title
JORDAN MERRITTJordan Merritt is a freelance soccer writer who covers Real Madrid CF On SI. He is an obsessive soccer fan and an Arsenal supporter.
Real Madrid continue to cling on by a thread in the La Liga title race as they travel to meet Getafe in a midweek bout on Wednesday
Los Blancos were at risk of falling seven points back of Barcelona on Sunday
but secured a last-gasp win over Athletic Club as Federico Valverde scored a 98th minute goal to snatch all three points at the death
Anything less in that situation would have likely been the end of their league chase
but they still remain within shouting distance of leaders Barcelona with six games to go
the four-point deficit does require the leaders to slip at some point if Madrid are to catch them
Carlo Ancelotti cannot afford any missteps or their push will likely be in tatters
They are hoping to stay in the hunt despite the absence of Kylian Mbappe
who is out injured for at least this match
That's made the recent struggles of Rodrygo so glaring
as Madrid are quite one-dimensional up front at the moment with Vinicus Jr
they must sort out their attacking woes soon or else not only their league campaign will be at threat of disappointment
The looming Copa del Rey final against Barcelona at the end of the month could also prove to be the true end of any trophy chase this season
The Sporting News runs through the latest team news and injury updates for both sides as the match draws nearer
LIVE BLOG: Follow along with minute-by-minute updates, highlights, and more from Getafe vs. Real Madrid
Getafe have a clean bill of health coming into this game
missing only former West Brom winger Allan Nyom with a muscle issue
they are without 21-year-old midfielder Christian Uche who was sent off over the weekend in a 1-0 defeat to Espanyol and will miss out on this match through suspension
That sees Juan Bernat come back into the side after he made a brief substiutite appearance over the weekend
Left-back Diego Rico returns from his one-game suspension for a red card in the defeat to Las Palmas
as Djene comes in at that spot while head coach Pepe Bordalas adds an extra defender in Juan Berrocal
Getafe starting XI (4-5-1): Soria (GK) — Iglesias
Injured: Nyom (muscle).Suspended: Uche (red card)
Carlo Ancelotti has some decisions to make
The most pressing one is regarding struggling forward Rodrygo
who has not scored a La Liga goal since mid-January
Real Madrid desperately need a run of form from the Brazilian with Mbappe out
in the 4-4-2 diamond he used over the weekend against Athletic Club
Arda Guler or Brahim Diaz come in behind them to give Jude Bellingham and Eduardo Camavinga a rest
while Antonio Rudiger gets a break with David Alaba in the lineup
Real Madrid are still missing Ferland Mendy for a bit longer
so Fran Garcia gets the start at left-back
while a struggling Lucas Vazquez wears the armband in the effort to help replace the injured Dani Carvajal on the right
Real Madrid starting XI (4-4-2 diamond): Courtois (GK) — Vazquez

Carlo Ancelotti will not be able to call upon the French superstar to lead his attack
Mbappé was forced to stay back in Madrid while Los Blancos made the trip to Getafe. Ancelotti called up 21-year-old Gonzalo García to round out Real Madrid's squad for the La Liga fixture
The Italian manager spoke to the media ahead of the all-important match against Getafe and gave the following update on Mbappé's fitness: "[Mbappé and Ferland Mendy] aren't ready
but they'll train over these coming days
I think both could be available for the game [against Barcelona] on Saturday."
The Copa del Rey final against Barcelona is just three days after Real Madrid's clash with Getafe. It will be a race for Mbappé to be ready for El Clásico
but returning in time for the final will be the Frenchman's top priority
"[Mbappé] is hurt by his injury and not being able to help the team
but he's doing everything to be ready," Ancelotti added
Real Madrid will have to get by without their best goalscorer for a second consecutive game

This La Liga clash takes place at the Coliseum in Getafe
Here's how that time translates across the U.S.:
Getafe’s medical crew will be keeping a close eye on Allan Nyom
who sat out Friday’s loss to Espanyol nursing a knock
Whether he’s fit to suit up for the midweek clash remains up in the air
One player who definitely won’t be in the mix is Uche
after he saw red in dramatic fashion at the Stage Front Stadium
His suspension leaves a gap in the lineup — one that could pave the way for Juan Bernat’s return
The Villarreal loanee was benched last time out but might just get the nod this time around
Diego Rico is set to rejoin the fray after serving a one-match suspension
and there’s a chance Juanmi also earns a starting spot
as the Azulones look to shuffle the deck and bounce back in front of their home crowd
Real Madrid are still without a couple of familiar faces on the injury list
as Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao remain long-term absentees
Ferland Mendy’s also walking the tightrope — the full-back has been sidelined for eight straight games with a hamstring issue and could miss out yet again
Star striker Kylian Mbappe has already served his one-game suspension after that straight red against Alaves
but there’s another cloud hanging over him — this time in the form of an ankle injury picked up in the Champions League loss to Arsenal
Word around the camp is that he might be good to go from the bench
though Real aren’t about to roll the dice with the Copa del Rey final looming large on Saturday
Carlo Ancelotti could opt to shuffle the deck midweek
Don’t be surprised to see the likes of Lucas Vazquez
and Endrick getting a run in the starting XI
as Los Blancos try to keep their stars fresh and their rhythm intact
Kylian Mbappe.Suspended: Maffeo (yellow accumulation)

Real Madrid visit Getafe in yet another crucial LaLiga game where Los Blancos will need to earn the three points in order to stay alive in the race for the 2024-25 title
Neither Mbappe nor Ferland Mendy are ready to make their return just yet
but Carlo Ancelotti will be expected to make some rotations in order to keep his players fresh ahead of Saturday’s Copa del Rey Final against Barcelona
With a game in hand, Barcelona lead with 57 points, one ahead Atletico and three clear third-placed Real Madrid who host Rayo Vallecano later on Sunday
Atlético's Alexander Sorloth came off the bench to convert a penalty in the 75th minute after a long VAR review spotted a handball which left the home team fuming
"After we scored the goal we knew they were going to go up and even so we lost the game at the end," Atlético midfielder Pablo Barrios told DAZN
"We were doing OK but after [Correa's] red card
Until we scored the goal we had the game under control
With the sending-off we didn't know how to control the result."
Atlético will face old rivals Real Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League round-of-16 tie on Wednesday before hosting Barca in LaLiga on Sunday
Simeone decided not to rest any key players as a win at Getafe would put Atlético top of the standings after Barcelona's game against Osasuna on Saturday was postponed due to the sudden death of their team doctor
Atlético were toothless up front as LaLiga's top two defences clashed
Atlético had no shots on target until the referee awarded them the penalty for a handball by Getafe defender Omar Alderete which Sorloth netted with a low strike to the goalkeeper's left
Correa's nasty challenge on Djené left Atlético a man down
and Getafe pushed forward and were rewarded with Arambarri's double strike

pulling the strings in build-up and scoring an important goal
Thibaut Courtois—8: Came up with some important saves
particularly late in the second half as Getafe began to mount some pressure
Lucas Vazquez—7.5: Best performance in recent memory
Raul Asencio—8: Battled all night long with Borja Mayoral but never let the striker get the best of him
Composed and assured as he has proven to be all season
David Alaba—6.5: Long ball distribution was on point
inclduing a perfect ball over the top to an on-running Endrick who had his shot cleared off the goal line
Had to come off through injury at half-time
Fran Garcia—7: Galloped up and down the left flank
Tchouameni—7: Put in a good display both in midfield and at center back in the second half
Was wrongly given a yellow card for a clean tackle in the second half
Fede Valverde—6.5: With Arda pulling the strings in possesion and Tchouameni covering behind
Arda Guler—8: Sensational in the first half
oftentimes the deepest centrally when Madrid were on the ball to help facilitate the team’s build-up
Was constantly involved and scored a brilliant goal with his right foot from the edge of the box
His long-term position is likely in the middle of midfield
Arda could gobble up those minutes next year
Faded out of the game in the second half as the entire team retreated and allowed Getafe to grow into the match
Brahim Diaz—6: Managed 3 shots on goal but never able to truly challenge Soria in the Getafe net
Vinicius Junior—7: Showed off an impressive passing range with multiple medium-to-long range passes to an on-running Fran Garcia down the flank
Finished the game with 3 key passes and 1 big chance created/
Endrick—6.5: Played 64 minutes total and gave glimpses of his innate talent
Nearly scored after an intelligent run off the shoulder of the Getafe backline
Gave Duarte of Getafe a rough night with his off-ball movement
Camavinga—6: Injured after making a bursting run through midfield
looks set to miss the Copa del Rey final on the weekend
Jude Bellingham—3: Did not look like he wanted to play
multiple misplaced passes and a lack of desire
Rodrygo—3: Ineffective off the bench with just 9 touches in 20 minutes on the pitch
Dani Ceballos—N/A: Late substitution for Arda Guler in midfield
The Turkish teenager scored the only goal to illuminate a drab 1-0 win for Carlo Ancelotti's side to stay in the title bidding
Arda Guler played hero for Real Madrid against Getafe
scoring the only goal in an otherwise tepid contest to lead Los Blancos to a 1-0 win
Madrid were admittedly poor against their city rivals
but Guler's first-half moment of magic spared any blushes - and kept them within touching distance of Barcelona in the title race
The Turkish youngster bagged what proved to be the winner after a slow start
weaving between two defenders before smashing one into the bottom corner from outside the box
but saw his deflected strike cleared off the line
Madrid were otherwise sloppy in the first period
settling for nearly moments and half chances
Brahim Diaz provided a decent effort to extend the lead after the break
only to see his curler well denied by the goalkeeper
dragging a shot wide after finding himself unmarked in the box
It was otherwise a bit of a limp to the final whistle - neither side holding onto the ball for long
drawing a nifty save out of Thibaut Courtois in stoppage time to hold onto the lead
Attention now turns to a massive Copa del Rey final against Barcelona

Real Madrid vs. Getafe best bet:Real Madrid Moneyline
Like a fighter that's trying to stay in the fight after getting a handful to the face, Real Madrid looks to make the best of what they have left to play for this season. Their 5-1 loss on aggregate to Arsenal sent ripples through the Merengue world, with legendary manager Carlo Ancelotti now expected to step down by the end of the season, if not sooner.
At the top of their wish list is spoiling El Clasico rivals FC Barcelona's Spanish double bid, with the Catalan team leading La Liga and set to face them in the Copa del Rey final.
Los Blancos currently sit seven points behind the Blaugranas, but they do have a game in hand. A win when they travel to the south of the Spanish capital to face Getafe is key in keeping that hope alive, with just five matchdays remaining in the season.
Uruguayan midfielder Federico Valverde's last-minute winner against Athletic Club on Sunday was a saving grace for Ancelotti. The head coach will have to find a way to motivate his players for a better performance at the Coliseum Stadium if he doesn't want to end his legendary Real Madrid career in disgrace.
The biggest piece of news for the Italian coach will be the return of French superstar Kylian Mbappe, who had injury fears after limping off against Arsenal and missing the game against Athletic.
Almost a small brother to Real Madrid and Atlético, the smallest La Liga team in the Spanish capital has a lot to play for in the coming weeks. Getafe sit in 12th in the league, but their fate is far from sealed.
Their form has floundered recently, with three defeats in their last four games. While they still have a comfortable nine-point cushion to stave off relegation fears, it's what they could be missing that should be on their mind. Sitting just four points from a European competition berth, now is not the time to take the foot off the gas.
A win against Madrid would go a long way towards achieving that, but they will need to improve their home form. Getafe has won just one of their last seven league home matches.
It's a rare sight for a José Bordalás team. The Spanish head coach has drawn plenty of criticism for his defensive style of play, but his methods yield big results, as seen in their 2-1 win against Atlético in March. With only Christantus Uche out of contention due to a suspension, he should be able to pick a strong starting 11.
Real Madrid vs. Getafe PickDon't ever underestimate the heart of a champion, and Real Madrid and Carlo Ancelotti are certainly that. Barcelona required some last-minute penalty magic to stave off Madrid on Saturday, and Los Blancos will keep that fight alive for as long as they can.
While their eyes will undoubtedly be on the Copa del Rey final this Saturday, they surely will be keen to land a double blow by shrinking the lead to four points.
Madrid's game has been discombobulated and uncreative. Still, while their star power alone won't push them past top European-level competition, it should be enough to carry them over the hump against mid-table opposition.

Mbappe and Mendy aren’t available just yet even though they rejoined the squad in training this Tuesday
Ancelotti hopes to have them both ready to face Barcelona on Saturday
and although it was not a pretty win at all
they would still get a major confidence boost from the win
Real Madrid beat Getafe 1-0 in LaLiga to stay in the title race through a goal from Arda Guler in the first half. They got this win just a few days before they face Barcelona in the final of the Copa Del Rey
Did not have much to do in the first half as Real Madrid
especially in the last few minutes and Courtois was crucial yet again
Decent performance - but I don't understand why he is the one taking free kicks when Guler is on the pitch
None of his deliveries got past the first man
Got caught wrong-footed in the first half in a dangerous opportunity for Getafe
Almost scored in the first half from a thunderous effort from the edge of the box
Defended well and went up to support the attack
A shame he will never start a big game for whatever reason
Good performance as a midfielder and as a defender
Tchouameni's impressive form in 2025 continues
Brilliant performance from Guler in a new role
and scored a brilliant goal in the first half to get Real Madrid the win
Real Madrid did not need him to do a whole lot
Had a few really good passes in counter-attacks
but was not able to create a massive impact
and had a brilliant chance to score which was cleared off the line by Getafe
and had a couple of weird decisions in the final third
but it was closer to a great Vinicius Jr performance than a bad one
Great performance from the bench today from Camavinga - once again - but he got injured in the last few minutes
and Real Madrid had to finish the game with 10 men

A solid shift from Valverde. Tracked both sides of the pitch very well, and fortunately, Real Madrid did not need him to do a whole lot. Rating: 7

Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois made a couple of difficult saves late on to secure Madrid's victory

IMAGO / ZUMA Press WireGetafe manager Jose Bordalas believes the Spanish giants shouldn’t be considering a new manager, especially with the Italian boss on the verge of a domestic double and a track record that speaks for itself (h/t AS)
He’s still alive in two competitions and has won pretty much everything
Bordalas states that whatever happens in Wednesday's match between Getafe and Real Madrid shouldn't affect Ancelotti's future with the club
and I’m not the person who should be judging whether he’s under scrutiny or not
What Ancelotti has achieved at Real Madrid is something very difficult for anyone to replicate
IMAGO / Alberto GardinShould Real Madrid overtake Barcelona for the league title and defeat their arch-rival for the Copa del Rey
it might be what Ancelotti and the rest of the Real Madrid squad need to calm the waters after how they went out to Arsenal in the Champions League
it could give the Italian manager a lifeline to keep his job for next season
While losing to Arsenal isn't ideal for Real Madrid
snatching two trophies from Barcelona might be what they need to salvage their 2024-25 season and he into the next campaign on a positive note

knowing that anything other than three points would be a huge blow in the title race
Not only would it hinder their chances of winning La Liga
it would also be very bad preparation for the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona which takes place this weekend
IMAGO / AFLOSPORTThe major news leading up to this match has been the suggestion that Kylian Mbappe will not be involved
but should be back in time for the cup final
so Real Madrid fans will be on for a nervous wait during the rest of the week
