Marcao, Januzaj, Ocampos and Suso all return to the matchday squad, but there are still ten players missing for various reasons. The full 21-man squad is as follows: Dmitrovic, Alberto Flores, Rafa Romero, Juanlu, Dario, Gattoni, Sergio Ramos, Marcao, Kike Salas, Pedrosa, Gudelj, Soumaré, Manu Bueno, Sow, Rakitic, Óliver Torres, Januzaj, Ocampos, Suso, Rafa Mir and En-Nesyri. 

Referee

The man in the middle will be Juan Luis Pulido Santanal. It is his second season in LaLiga EA Sports and this will be his third time refereeing us. Both of the previous matches were also home games - a 1-1 draw against Real Valladolid and a 3-2 loss against CA Osasuna. He has taken charge of five Getafe matches, the first two occasions being in the Segunda División. From those five games, Getafe have won two, lost two and drawn one.
