Last season, Atlético had the opportunity to defend the title won in the 2020/2021 season, but they were far from the form of the championship season. They took the third position with 71 points,15 less than the champion and city rival Real. In the Champions League, they were eliminated in the quarterfinals by Manchester City with a total score of 1-0. Diego Simeone's team was left this summer by veteran Luis Suarez, whose contract expired and who went to his native Uruguay to finish his career there. He signed for National, where he took his first football steps. As the biggest reinforcement, Argentinian Molina, who defended the colours of Udinese, arrived for 20 million euros. Along with him, Samuel Lino arrived, who played for Gil Vicente, while the experienced Axel Witsel arrived without compensation. Atletico played four matches in the preparatory period and recorded the same number of victories, of which the two against Manchester United and Juventus stand out. Madrid is the third favourite for the title right behind the biggest Spanish clubs Real and Barcelona. On the other hand, the home team Getafe had a slightly weaker season. They finished in 15th position with only one point more than Granada, which is playing in Segunda this season. The club's management is determined not to repeat that season and several promising moves have been made. As the biggest reinforcement, a striker from Real Borja Mayoral arrived. Next to him, Portu arrived on loan from Sociedad, as well as Luis Mila and Domingos Duarte (both from Granada). One of the best players from last season, Matias Oliveira, left the club. the Italian Napoli bought him for 11 million euros. Tradition is completely on the side of Atletico. The last time Getafe managed to defeat tonight's rival was in 2011. I believe that coach Simeone's team will open the new season with a triumph and continue the tradition of good results against the team from the suburbs of Madrid.

My prediction;

Outcome: Atletico to win
