Atletico Madrid are leading the La Liga table with 32 points from 13 matches and two games in hand over rivals Real Madrid. Getafe are 12th with 17 points.
Atletico Madrid
The Rojiblancos are having a stunning season so far with just one defeat in the league and it was against Real Madrid. Diego Simeone will feel this may be his season to win the title since both Real and Barca are having a dip in form and if Atletico win the two matches in hand they have over other teams, they can be 6 points clear at the top and it will be a great boost for their ambitions. Simeone known for his hard defensive tactics showed it again this season with just 4 goals conceded in 13 matches so far. They come into this match following two successive wins, and a convincing away win to Real Sociedad in their last match.
Getafe
Getafe finished 8th in the La Liga last season and they would want to do better this season or at least qualify for UEFA Europa League again next season. But they have to work on their defensive organization much more as they concede in almost every match. Getafe haven’t beaten Atletico in madrid in the last 9 matches.
Verdict
Atletico Madrid look to be too strong for Getafe in this match and given their head to head meetings fall all in favour of the home team we predict a home win for this match.
Home win
