Getafe vs Atletico Madrid Preview

Getafe vs Atletico Madrid

Competition – Spanish Primera

Stadium – Coliseum Alfonso Perez

Date: 22nd September 2018

Kick-off time – 17:30 GMT

Getafe will be looking to extend their recent unbeaten run to 4 matches when they welcome Atletico Madrid in this game.

While the visitors haven’t been doing well in the league recently, they should hope that their midweek win in the Champions League can spark an upturn in form.

Getafe finished last season in 8th position in the league standings, which was quite impressive as they had just been promoted back to the topflight. They have started this season very well also.

They did lose their first game of the season against Real Madrid, however, after that game they have collected 7 points from a possible 9, and they come into this game after an impressive 2-0 win at Sevilla.

Those results should boost their confidence ahead of this tough game.

Atletico Madrid are struggling in La Liga in these early stages.

While they are not a team that win games with high scoring margins, scoring just three goals in four games against teams like Valencia, Eibar, Celta Vigo and Rayo Vallecano is poor for a team that finished as runners up last season.

Atletico have collected five points from a possible twelve and their average goals scored per 90 minutes this season under 1.0 goals.

Their fans would be hoping their 2-1 win over Monaco in the Champions League can kick start their season.

Atlético Madrid have won 5 of their last 6 meetings with Getafe.

Getafe didn’t manage to score a single goal in those 6 fixtures.

Bookmakers have priced Atletico Madird up as odds-on favourites to get the victory at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez.
