La Liga 2024-25: Plenty At Stake In Four Matches In Mid-week Action In Spain
Athletic Club Bilbao: Four games in La Liga on Wednesday have a lot to say about the title race, next season's Champions League berths, and the struggle to avoid relegation. Real Madrid make the short trip to Getafe after Sunday's injury-time win at home to Athletic Club Bilbao, and depending on FC Barcelona's result against Mallorca on Tuesday, Madrid could kick off seven points behind the league leaders and again need to win to keep in touch.
Saturday's Copa del Rey final in Sevilla comes three days after the game, with Madrid understandably unhappy at having 24 hours less preparation and recovery time for that match than Barca.
With Kylian Mbappe doubtful with an ankle injury, Carlo Ancelotti will probably make rotations to try and keep key players fresh for Saturday, with Brahim Diaz and Arda Guler getting a chance and David Alaba returning in defense, reports Xinhua. Getafe are safe from relegation in mid-table and have little at stake other than pride.
