Derby at home against Getafe
This Tuesday, starting at 9:30pm, we will play against Getafe at the Cívitas Metropolitano, a match corresponding to the 18th LaLiga matchday.
A new LaLiga challenge is on the horizon at the Cívitas Metropolitano. The 18th LaLiga matchday of the season brings a duel against Getafe in which we will fight to get back to winning ways.
Our team comes into this match in fourth place with 34 points (and a game in hand) after losing 2-0 at San Mamés to Athletic Club. However, we are unbeaten in 20 consecutive matches at the Cívitas Metropolitano, 17 in the league and 3 in the Champions League, so they will be looking to maintain the streak that began on 19 February this year.
The club from the south of Madrid have won three in a row, against Atzeneta in the Copa del Rey, Valencia, and Sevilla in LaLiga. Last weekend they took all three points on their visit to Seville thanks to goals from Greenwood, Jaime Mata and Mayoral. Borja Mayoral is having a great season in which, with 10 goals, he is the second top scorer in the competition. The good work of the Getafe striker has been key to the performance of Bordalás side in LaLiga, as they occupy 8th place with 25 points.
Getafe away record this season is 1 win, 4 draws and 4 defeats, scoring 12 goals and conceding 16. The duel on the bench between Simeone and Bordalás is very favourable to the Argentine, with 8 wins, 2 draws and no defeats. In the last meeting at home, the result was 1-1, with Correa scoring the Atleti goal.
