Atlético Madrid continues to chase the leaders, but their 13-point gap to Barcelona has already stretched to a near-impossible one, making the title race a near-impossible goal. Simeone's side are in excellent form, however: a 5-2 rout of Tottenham and a comeback win over Real Sociedad (3-2) underscore their attacking prowess. However, defensive issues persist, with the "mattress makers" regularly conceding goals in recent matches.
Getafe has undergone a surprising transformation in recent matches. They have won four of their last five matches, including a sensational 1-0 away win against Real Madrid. The visitors have found excellent form and are adept at playing as a second-choice, making them extremely dangerous on the counterattack.
Atlético Madrid won 1-0 in the first half, but Getafe's current form is impressive. Given the hosts' attacking potential and the visitors' confidence, it's logical to assume a shutout is unlikely. However, Atlético Madrid should make up for it at home thanks to their class and depth.
