GETAFE host Osasuna in an intriguing La Liga contest – and loanee Mason Greenwood is on the bench.
Greenwood was suspended by Manchester United after he was arrested in 2022. He was then charged with a string of offences including attempted rape.
However, the CPS then dropped the charges in February this year.
And the English striker then completed a deadline-day loan switch from Manchester United to Getafe.

Response from Osasuna?
Osasuna sensationally qualified for the Conference League last season after finishing 7th in LaLiga.
However, they failed to get past Club Brugge in the qualifying round and will not be in the group stages.
From their four games so far, they have won two and lost two.

Form guide
Getafe have made a slow start to the season and sit 15th after four matches.
However, they have not had any favours from the fixture schedule, having already played both Barcelona and Real Madrid.
Getafe drew 0-0 with Barca, then lost 3-0 to Girona before securing their first win of the season versus Alaves 1-0.
Last weekend, they lost to Real Madrid 2-1 due to a 95th minute by Jude Bellingham.
