The recent head-to-head record between these clubs has been one-sided, with the visitors holding a clear dominance.

Across the last five meetings, Atlético have won four times and lost only once. The home team claim their first victory over the visitors in the Diego Simeone era following a 2-1 home win in March 2025.

Getafe face issues in defence and midfield due to some injury problems. Davinchi (knee) and Kiko Femenía (muscle) are both confirmed absentees. Midfielder Yvan Neyou is also ruled out.

Atlético Madrid have some major concerns also, especially in goal, where first-choice keeper Jan Oblak is doubtful due to knee discomfort. Robin Le Normand and Johnny Cardoso are out also.

Getafe (4-2-3-1): Soria; Iglesias, Abqar, Duarte, Rico; Martín, Milla; Arambarri, Sancris, Liso; Mayoral

Atletico Madrid (4-2-3-1): Musso; Llorente, Giménez, Hancko, Ruggeri; Koke, Barrios; Simeone, Baena, Álvarez; Sørloth

Atlético Madrid’s impressive form this season makes them the favourites for this match, despite their injury concerns.

Getafe will fight hard and make it difficult, but Atlético’s quality in attack, even without star names, should secure the win. We expect a low-scoring match, but the visitors will come out with a win.
