Defender Eder Militao scored with an early header to give Real Madrid a 1-0 win over Getafe and regain top spot in La Liga on Saturday.
Real Madrid have 22 points, 3 points less than Barcelona, who host Celta Vigo on Sunday.
Militão scored with a header in the third minute after evading control from more than one player and went high to return a corner kick from his veteran teammate Luka Modrić.
Getafe have lost their last two games and are in 16th place with 7 points, two points behind the relegation zone.
