The last of Saturday's La Liga ties sees Getafe welcome city neighbours Atletico Madrid to the Coliseum Alfonso Perez, a game that Getafe desperately need to win.

Atletico, who have won their last 13 league games against Getafe without conceding a goal, will be expecting to return to winning ways after their 1-1 draw with eternal rivals Real Madrid last time out.

Match preview

After weathering a bit of a blip in form in recent weeks, Diego Simeone's industrious Atletico side look back to their best following a series of impressive performances.

The team's 2-1 win over Marcelino's in-form Athletic Bilbao in midweek went a long way in silencing claims that Simeone's men were bottling the title.

Luis Suarez, AKA El Pistolero, notched up his 18th goal of the campaign in that tie, a further indication of just how important the Uruguayan is to this Atleti side.

A win for Atleti this weekend would make club history, with Simeone officially overtaking Luis Aragones with the most Atleti victories as a coach (309).

If rumours were taken as gospel, Getafe boss Jose Bordalas would have been sacked several times already this season. Yet, rumours are rumours and Bordalas soldiers on regardless.

In what has been a challenging few weeks for Los Azulones, Bordalas's men find themselves in 15th place, just five points above the dreaded relegation zone.

Against Real Valladolid last time out, all of the team's heroic exploits against Valencia were undone, with Los Azulones losing 2-1 to their relegation rivals.

In that tie, frontman Jaime Mata was both hero and villain, bagging a crucial goal for Getafe before getting sent off in the dying stages of the game.

Given that Getafe have failed to score in any of their last 13 games against Atleti, Mata's absence will certainly be felt in this tie.

With Mata suspended, Bordalas could either bring Angel Rodriguez into the starting 11 or pack the midfield to support Enes Unal upfront.

Bordalas has a largely fit squad to choose from, but Dario Poveda will be unavailable due to physical discomfort.

Kieran Trippier's return to the fold has been a huge boost for Simeone's men and there is no doubt that the Englishman will retain his spot at right-back.

Defensive stalwart and Simeone favourite Jose Gimenez will likely be unavailable for this tie.

Getafe possible starting lineup:
Soria; Suarez, Djene, Cabaco, Olivera; Nyom, Arambarri, Alena, Maksimovic, Kubo; Unal

Atletico Madrid possible starting lineup:
Oblak; Trippier, Savic, Felipe, Hermoso; Llorente, Koke, Lemar; Felix, Suarez, Carrasco

We say: Getafe 1-2 Atletico Madrid

Getafe have been really poor on several occasions over the last few weeks, and we do not think they will find a way to turn things around against La Liga's top dogs. We reckon El Pistolero will collect his bounty once again this weekend.
