Atleti look to win the derby against a dangerous Getafe side
Our team faces Getafe at the Wanda Metropolitano on Saturday, Jan. 26 at 4.15 p.m. CET.
Atleti host an in-form Getafe in the Madrid derby at the Wanda Metropolitano on LaLiga Matchday 21. The LaLiga match is to be played on Saturday, Jan. 26 at 4.15 p.m. CET.
Our team arrive at this game following the 3-0 away win against Huesca, and on the back of a fantastic 17-match non-losing streak in the league.
Moreover, Simeone's boys have only lost one LaLiga game so far (against Celta, four and a half months ago), and are unbeaten at the Wanda Metropolitano. In fact, Atleti have the best home record in the league with 26 points (tied with Barcelona, who have played one more match at their stadium).
Getafe are also in great form, having won three of their last four matches, including a 4-0 win in their last game against fifth-placed Alavés. Top goalscorer Jorge Molina, who has scored eight goals so far in LaLiga, netted two on the day. Bordalás' side are currently sixth, just two points off the Champions League.
Both teams met on Sep. 22, 2018, when Atleti earned a 2-0 away win thanks to two goals from Lemar. Last season, we won both games against Getafe (2-0 at the Wanda Metropolitano and 1-0 at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez).
