Atletico Madrid will play against Getafe in La Liga at the Metropolitano this Saturday afternoon.
Diego Simeone’s squad has turned their home ground into a challenging venue again. Their solid performance at home is a major factor in their current third-place standing, only behind Barcelona in home records as they approach matchday 28.
They have lost just once in their last seven matches, recently securing a strong 5-2 win over Tottenham in the Champions League round of 16.
