KICK off: 9 February 22:00
Information: Madrid will again be without a number of first-team players for Tuesday’s contest, with Rodrygo Goes, Federico Valverde and Eden Hazard all definitely out, while Sergio Ramos underwent a knee operation on Saturday and is unlikely to be unavailable for selection until April. Lucas Vazquez, Dani Carvajal and Isco are also all doubts, while Alvaro Odriozola was injured against Huesca and now faces a battle to prove his fitness in time for the match. Eder Militao will be back from a suspension to ease Madrid’s concerns at the back, but Zidane has a problem in midfield as Toni Kroos’s booking against Huesca means that the German is suspended. Marcelo is an option to start in midfield but 20-year-old Antonio Blanco, who has been on the bench twice in the league this season, is being tipped to make his debut in the middle of the park. As for Getafe, Mauro Arambarri will be available, having served a suspension against Sevilla, but Djene Dakonam is banned due to the red card that he picked up on Saturday. Head coach Bordalas is expected to resist the temptation to make wholesale changes for Tuesday’s clash, but Erick Cabaco is in line for a start due to Dakonam’s absence. Arambarri could replace David Timor in the middle of the park, meanwhile, but Jaime Mata, Carles Alena and Marc Cucurella should again feature for the away team in attacking positions.
