Our prediction for the match Atletico vs Getafe
“The Mattress Makers” were not memorable for anything special last season. Moreover, they, having lost to Atletico, which was no stranger to them, in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey, were below “the Basques” in the Primera for some time, but eventually overtook the competitor from Bilbao. Still, that was done only to close the quartet, finishing lower than Girona. “The Blues” took 43 points in their first full season after Bordalás had returned to the coaching position, finishing in 14th place.
Diego Simeone initiated a serious renewal of the squad in the summer. The players needed time to get used to each other, but thanks to their winning streak, they got involved in the title race in the Primera and reached the Champions League play-offs without any stress, having thrashed Red Bull with a 4-1 score in Salzburg. Speaking about the previous round, the team also secured a confident 2-0 victory over Mallorca. Pepe’s footballers are currently short of victories. At the same time, they stopped Barcelona, playing a 1-1 draw, in January. That was followed by a 3-0 score on the field of Real Sociedad and a 0-0 result in the struggle with Sevilla.
The grandee from the capital has already managed to beat 4 opponents in the cup. The most prestigious of them was Elche, which was thrashed with a 4-0 score in the previous round. The opponent’s path was approximately the same. The club has already overcome 4 rounds, including Granada and, speaking about the 1/8 finals, Pontevedra, which had created a couple of sensations.
