Getafe vs Atletico Madrid Prediction 09.03.2025 | LaLiga

• Competition: Spain - LaLiga
• Date: Sunday, 9th, March 2025
• Kickoff: 13:00 UK / 14:00 CET
• Venue: Coliseum (Getafe)

Desperate to maintain at least their second-place position, Atletico Madrid heads to the Coliseum to face Getafe in the 27th round of La Liga on Sunday.

Instead of entering the conversation about a European finish, Getafe have been dragged down toward the danger zone after suffering a heartbreaking last-gasp defeat by relegation-threatened Leganes last weekend, leaving them just six points clear of the bottom three.

On the other hand, Atletico Madrid took full advantage of Real Madrid’s stumble against Real Betis and, with their own hard-fought 1-0 victory over a stubborn Athletic Bilbao, climbed above their city rivals into second place, while staying just one point adrift of table-toppers Barcelona with 12 rounds left to play.

Getafe vs Atletico Madrid Betting Tips : ATLETICO MADRID TO WIN

The two sides will lock horns for the third and final time this season, with Atletico Madrid determined to remain infallible against their city rival, having edged them 1-0 in the league before dismantling them with a ruthless 5-0 thrashing in the Copa del Rey last month. A red-hot Atlético Madrid visits at the worst possible moment for Getafe, who enter this contest reeling from back-to-back defeats, and the most recent one raises serious concerns not only because it was against a struggling side but also due to their inability to produce even one effort on goal. After going down 1-2 to Real Madrid in the first-leg clash of the Champions League round of 16 in midweek, coach Diego Simeone and his squad will be keen to quickly get back to winning ways, and boost team morale ahead of the deciding leg with their arch rival. Recent visits to Estadio Coliseum have been fruitful for Atletico, who have left the ground with all three points in nine of their last ten H2Hs versus Getafe, and given they cannot afford mistakes to stay in a strong position for the LaLiga title, the Colchoneros should find a way to defeat their city rivals who have been regular customers in recent years.
