Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets is hoping the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo hits Real Madrid hard.

Real kickoff their La Liga campaign tonight against Getafe without Ronaldo, who made a winning start with Juventus yesterday.

And after yesterday's win over Alaves, Busquets said: "I hope they miss him and that the lack of purpose will be felt.

"But I know the coach and he will make sure that Real is more united.

"We, on our side, will play as we know how to do so."
