Getafe vs Atl. Madrid Prediction & Tips
Having lost their first five games of a season in the top flight for the first time, Getafe faces this extremely complicated duel as the penultimate and with one more game than Alavés, bottom. The azulones are the fourth team of this century that has not added any points in their first five games of the season in LaLiga Santander (LL). However, only one of the other three (Malaga in 2017-18) ended up declining. They say it’s not how you start, but …
With its coach Míchel on the tightrope, it can be encouraging for Getafe to have scored against Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid in the last 12 months (W1, E2). However, the azulón team has not beaten Atleti at the Alfonso Pérez Coliseum since November 2011 (E3, P6).
The rojiblancos, for their part, remain undefeated in this championship (G3, E2), but they have chained two official matches without seeing the door for the first time since March. At the moment, the return of Antoine Griezmann has not yet had a positive effect on the offensive mattress production. Griezmann has not scored a goal in any of his last 17 shots with Atleti in LL.
In the current century, Atlético de Madrid has never registered three consecutive 0-0 draws, but neither rojiblancos nor azulones saw the door in the league clash between the two played at Alfonso Pérez last season. For this Tuesday’s match, Simeone will not be able to count on João Félix (suspended). Be that as it may, Atleti has been a real rock in visits to Getafe in recent years: the rojiblanco team has chained nine trips to the azulón fiefdom in all competitions, leaving a clean sheet, with an excellent record of six wins and three draws.
Players to watch: two of Getafe’s last four home goals at LL have been scored by Carles Aleñá. At Atleti, Luis Suárez opened his team’s scoring account against Villarreal on matchday three, something he also did in the 1-0 victory over Getafe in the previous championship.
Highlight: Getafe registers an average of three corners against per game in LL 2021-22 (Atleti: 2.8).
