Atletico Madrid vs Getafe Tips & Preview - Upper hand for the hosts
- Atletico Madrid resilient with 19 wins in last 20 matches.
- Getafe prioritize defense; concede few goals.
- Previous meetings suggest a low-scoring game.

Atletico Madrid vs Getafe
Atletico Madrid will have eyes on the last four of the Spanish Copa del Rey but must first get past a tricky Gefafe side in the quarter-final on Tuesday.
It is a battle of two of the most stubborn defences in Spain who look likely to serve up a low-scoring contest. However, the hosts have that extra bit of attacking quality and should make it count.
Atletico Madrid Form
Atletico Madrid breezed through the previous rounds of the Copa del Rey, winning all four of their matches in normal time and keeping three clean sheets. They were rampant last time out, earning a 4-0 victory at Elche with Alexander Sorloth scoring a brace.
The hosts’ recent form has been solid as they are unbeaten in 19 of their last 20 matches across all competitions. They warmed up for Tuesday’s quarter-final with a 2-0 victory over Mallorca last Saturday.
Defending remains a key aspect of Atletico Madrid's game and they have kept clean sheets in three of their last five home matches across all competitions. That defensive style has seen them play out a few low-scoring results lately, with four of their last five fixtures at the Wanda Metropolitano producing under 2.5 goals.
Getafe Form
Getafe have been taken to extra-time twice in the Copa del Rey but still found a way to progress to the quarter-finals. They earned a 1-0 victory at Pontevedra in the previous round, scoring as early as the second minute and holding out for the rest of the contest to see out the win.
The visitors are not the most prolific team in the Spanish topflight with Jose Bordalas often prioritising defensive solidity, especially against the big sides. This defensive style means nine of Getafe's last 11 matches across all competitions have produced under 2.5 goals.
While Bordalas' approach may have its critics, the system has proved quite effective as Getafe have become one of the most difficult teams to face in Spain. They head into Tuesday’s clash unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions and battled to a 0-0 draw with Sevilla in a La Liga fixture last weekend.
Head to Head
Atletico Madrid often get the better of Getafe, with their last defeat in this fixture coming way back in 2011. They have already beaten their rivals at home this season, winning 1-0 in the La liga fixture back in December.
Verdict
For all of Getafe's stubbornness, Atletico Madrid seem to have their number and constantly get the win in this fixture. As seen in the La Liga fixture in December, it is never smooth sailing, but the hosts should claim the win here.
With both teams often looking to defend first, Tuesday’s clash could be set to produce few goals. There was only one goal in the clash in December and a similar outcome could be on the cards.
