A lull in the game as Real just knock the ball round.

Lucas Vazquez controls the ball on the top of his head, rolls it on there for a second and is chopped down by Gaston Alvarez.

Only six touches for Eden Hazard so far.

Federico Valverde runs onto a long ball over the top and forces a save from David Soria in the Getafe goal. A bigger game for the visitors than the hosts in all honesty.

Marco Asensio has a shot blocked now. Madrid's Carabao Cup team are growing into this game now.

Lovely cross from Lucas Vazquez but Marco Asensio fails to make contact with it in the centre. Big chance for Real.

Real don't deal well with a long ball into the box and Carles Alena volleys wide as Portu heads the ball down to him.

Anyone wondering how the big event of the night is going?

Well Enda Curran has just given Treaty United a 1-0 lead over Longford.

Eden Hazard tries to beat his man with some nice footwork but controls the ball out of play. He'll be desperate to take this chance tonight.

Real's Marco Asensio gets the ball on the edge of the box from Aurelien Tchouameni but his poked shot rolls through to the Getafe keeper.

Eduardo Camavinga gets the rare treat of starting a game in his preferred central midfield position today. He's replaced Ferland Mendy as regular starting left-back.

Real left-back Ferland Mendy completely misjudges a long ball which Portu receives and pulls back for Carles Alena, whose shot is blocked.

Getafe lost 15 of their 17 La Liga away matches against Real Madrid (including each of the last 13), only avoiding defeat in a 1-1 draw in 2006-07 and a 1-0 win in 2007-08 (goal by Ikechukwu Uche).

Getafe have a chance within about 90 seconds but Nemanja Maksimovic fizzes a shot just wide from 20 yards.

Getafe are in the relegation zone, but only on goal difference. So a draw or win would take them out of the bottom three.

They beat Celta Vigo last time out for their first win in six weeks.
