In the 8th episode of the podcast there are well-founded assessments of Atletico Madrid vs. Getafe including tip, forecast and lots of shop talk.
Atletico Madrid :
The fact that Atletico Madrid are the clear favorites for the three points in their home games is hardly any groundbreaking news. The reason for this is not only that Atletico are leading the La Ligas table – even on points with Real Madrid, but two games less than their city rivals – but precisely because Atletico are so strong at home.
The Rojiblancos are still undefeated at Wanda Metropolitano, have won five of their six home games to date and conceded just two goals. Only FC Barcelona managed to win at the Wanda Metropolitano in the last 2019/20 season. This season, however, Barça was defeated 1-0 on matchday 10.
It is a small milestone for coach Diego Simeone’s team, which has thus underpinned its claim to the title, even if nobody at Atletico wants to and will speak about it publicly. Understatement is part of Simeone’s credo, but the strong and above all constant performances of the season so far speak for themselves and give a different picture.
Before the one-week Christmas break, Atleti again put an exclamation mark, won at third in the table Real Sociedad 2-0 – another big point for the red-whites. A win against Getafe on Wednesday and the Mannen Simeones also finish 2020 as leaders.
Getafe :
The Getafe CF is made easier and with a little boost of self-confidence you can travel the few kilometers to Madrid. Because before Christmas there was only the liberating away win at Cadiz (2-0), whereby Getafe was able to end a negative series of seven games without a win; then there was a 1-1 draw against Celta Vigo, the team of the hour in La Liga.
If the last two results were positive again, there was also negative news against Celta. Because three players saw their fifth yellow card against the Galicians: Damian Suarez, Erick Cabaco and Allan Nyom are all banned against Atletico.
To make matters worse, Getafe also has to do without attacker Cucho Hernandez. This was suspended by the Spanish sports court for four games after publicly criticizing the VAR and the referees. Coach Pepe Bordalas has to rebuild his starting eleven a lot – a bitter weakening for the Azulones before the difficult guest appearance in the capital, which is now even more difficult.
Getafe are anything but strong away from home anyway. The 2-0 win in Getafe was the first three-point away from home. Getafe scored as many goals in one game as it did in all five games together. The Bordalas team has only managed a measly four hits abroad so far.
