Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
There will be fireworks when Getafe and Atletico Madrid lock horns at Coliseum in the local derby. Los Azulones failed to impress in a 1-0 loss at Cadiz, but they are surely capable of making life difficult for Diego Simeone’s troops on home soil. Both Omar Alderete and Oscar Rodriguez are pushing for a start, while Juan Iglesias remain in the recovery room.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win after surviving Celta Vigo at the weekend. Both teams, though, should be happy with one point from Wednesday’s clash and, taking everything into account, there is a big value in betting on draw. Both Nahuel Molina and Machin Perez are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side, while Rodrigo de Paul should be recalled to the starting XI after scoring the winner against Os Celeste. Alvaro Morata is eyeing a spot in the starting XI as well.

Anthony Griezmann is a French forward born on 21st March 1991 in Macon, and he is widely regarded as one of Europe’s most exciting footballers at the moment. The pacey striker started showing his potential shortly after coming through Real Sociedad’s youth academy and he went on to score 46 goals in 179 league appearances for La Real. Excellent displays in Spanish la Liga saw him become a target for a number of top clubs, but he eventually choose to sign for Atletico Madrid, and that proved to be a very good decision.
Griezmann continued the rich vein of form at Vicente Calderon, scoring some important goals as los Colchoneros enjoyed domestic and European success, while also becoming a key member of the France national team.
Playing as a winger or second striker, Griezmann possesses impressive technical skills, he is a strong finisher and still finds time to work hard for his side, so no wonder he is widely regarded as one of the leading forwards on the continent. He won the U19 European Championship with France and is tipped to lead Les Bleus to glory on senior level as well.
