Jude Bellingham will be bidding to continue his excellent start to his Real Madrid career when Carlo Ancelotti's side face Getafe in La Liga on Saturday afternoon.

The England international has scored four goals in his opening three appearances for Los Blancos, which have all been victories, leaving the capital giants top of the table on nine points.

Bellingham is again set to play as the most advanced midfielder this weekend, but there will have to be a change in the final third, with Vinicius Junior picking up a thigh injury in the 1-0 win over Celta Vigo last time out.

Vinicius could allegedly be out for the next month with the issue, which is likely to open the door to on-loan Espanyol forward Joselu to feature alongside Rodrygo in the front two.

Ferland Mendy and Dani Ceballos are back in training, as they bid to fully recover from the issues that have kept them out early in the campaign, but this match has come too soon for them.

Thibaut Courtois and Eder Militao remain long-term absentees due to serous knee injuries, while Arda Guler is also on the sidelines recovering from a knee operation.

Luka Modric and Toni Kroos are both pushing to come into the side, but there could ultimately be just the one change from the team that started against Celta, with Joselu coming in for Vinicius.

Real Madrid possible starting lineup: Kepa; Carvajal, Rudiger, Alaba, Garcia; Valverde, Tchouameni, Camavinga; Bellingham; Joselu, Rodrygo
