Real Madrid kick off 2011 with a testing derby day at city neighbours Getafe on Monday as Jose Mourinho's side bid to close the two-point gap on Spanish league leaders Barcelona.

Barcelona ended a fantastic 2010 with 10 consecutive league wins, including a 5-0 thrashing of Mourinho's Real, and start the new year with a home match against promoted Levante on Sunday.

Real take on an in-form Getafe, with 12 points from their last four league outings, at the Coliseum looking for a derby win to get their title bid up and running.
