Matchday 28 of the La Liga season between Atletico Madrid and Getafe will take place on 14 March at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano. Atletico Madrid vs Getafe: prediction, betting odds and statistics.
Atletico Madrid
Last week, Atletico Madrid ground out a hard-fought win in an entertaining home match against Real Sociedad (3:2). As a result, the home side have now won three straight league matches for the first time since October-November 2025. It is worth noting that across those three games they have scored eight goals in total, having previously failed to score in three successive La Liga matches. At the same time, the hosts remain one of the most reliable sides in the division defensively, conceding 25 goals since the start of the season - only Real Madrid have let in fewer (23). The team remain third in the standings, but are only ahead of Villarreal on goal difference.
- Atletico Madrid have scored in 30 of their last 31 home matches in the Spanish league.
- The club's all-or-nothing run in this competition stands at five games (three wins, two defeats).
- At least one team failed to score in six of the last eight La Liga matches involving the home side.
Potential Atletico de Madrid Lineup (4-4-2)*
Jan Oblak - Nahuel Molina, Jose Maria Gimenez, David Hanczko, Matteo Ruggeri - Koke, Rodrigo Mendoza, Giuliano Simeone, Thiago Almada - Ademola Lookman, Alexander Sorloth.
Midfielder Rodrigo Mendoza is unavailable due to injury. The participation of midfielder Pablo Barrios is in doubt.
Getafe
Getafe are building increasingly impressive form. Last weekend, Getafe beat Real Betis at home (2:0). That made it four wins in their last five La Liga matches, having previously gone eight games without a win in this competition (three draws, five defeats). Across their last seven league fixtures, the away side have suffered only one narrow defeat, losing 0:1 to Sevilla. Thanks to that surge, the visitors have moved into the top half of the table. They currently sit ninth, five points off the European places.
- At least one team failed to score in five of Getafe's last six La Liga matches.
- The club's all-or-nothing run in this competition has reached five matches (four wins, one defeat).
- In the current La Liga season, the away side have scored 23 goals in total - only Oviedo have a worse record (17).
Potential Getafe CF Lineup (5-4-1)*
David Soria - Djene, Juan Iglesias, Said Romero, Domingos Duarte, Abdel Abqar - Mauro Arambarri, Luis Milla, Kiko Femenia, Martin Satriano - Luis Vazquez.
Forward Adrian Liso has served his suspension. Defender Davinchi, as well as forwards Borja Mayoral and Abu Kamara, are not ready for the match due to injuries.
Atletico Madrid vs Getafe: Match Prediction
Atletico Madrid have recently experienced a dip in form, but it proved to be short-lived. After a three-match winless run in La Liga, the team regrouped and claimed three successive wins in this competition for the first time since autumn. At home, backed by a strong crowd, the hosts most often find a way through even the toughest fixtures. Since the start of the current La Liga season, the club have collected 37 points from a possible 42 on home soil; across their last 13 home league games, Atletico Madrid have recorded 12 wins.
Getafe have generally hit top gear and are enjoying their best spell of the season. They have lost only one of their last seven matches in the Spanish league, with four wins in their last five during that run. However, they now face a very difficult trip to their neighbours. The visitors have not won away at Atletico Madrid in La Liga since 2010. Across their last 14 head-to-head meetings away to this opponent, Getafe have recorded just two draws and 12 defeats.
