Real Madrid just published their starting lineup for the upcoming match —16:15 CET— against Getafe, which marks the return of La Liga after two weeks of FIFA break.
Real Madrid starting XI: Casilla, Achraf, Nacho, Ramos, Marcelo, Llorente, Asensio, Kroos, Vazquez, Ronaldo, Benzema.
Getafe starting XI (To Be Confirmed): Guaita, Suarez, Dakonam, Cala, Antunes, Bergara, Arambari, Jimenez, Fajr, Ndiaye, Molina.
It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid have fresh legs ready to control the midfield in an away game. Getafe should be a manageable opposition but Madrid will need to show patience and composure if they want to earn the three points.
Benzema’s return to the lineup will benefit Cristiano Ronaldo, who is yet to score his first goal of the 2017-18 La Liga season. Expect the Portuguese player to come out firing on all cylinders while Benzema tries to help the team’s buildup play from the get go.
