In a pivotal clash that could secure a top-four finish in La Liga and Champions League qualification, Atletico Madrid will travel to face local rivals Getafe on Wednesday evening.

Atleti's recent form has been formidable, with three consecutive victories propelling them towards a coveted place in Europe's elite club competition. Their most recent triumph, a hard-fought 1-0 win against Celta Vigo, has placed them eight points clear of Athletic Club in fourth position, with just three matches remaining in what has been an inconsistent season.

Rodrigo De Paul's late winner in the Celta Vigo match has put Atletico within touching distance of sealing Champions League qualification, adding to the momentum generated by their recent string of wins in La Liga. Notably, they've kept clean sheets in their last two outings, showcasing defensive solidity at a crucial juncture.

While Atletico's away record has been less stellar, with only six wins from 17 matches on the road so far, the short distance to Estadio Coliseum for this fixture offers some comfort. Moreover, Diego Simeone boasts an impressive track record against Getafe, having secured 18 top-flight victories over them, the most against any single opponent.

Remarkably, Atletico Madrid has not tasted defeat in any of their 22 league encounters with Getafe under Simeone's tenure, setting an unparalleled record in Spanish football. On the flip side, Getafe finds themselves in a precarious position after back-to-back defeats without finding the net. The disappointment of losing to Cadiz has dimmed their hopes of a top-half finish, with Osasuna, Sevilla, and Alaves all breathing down their necks in the league table.

Jose Bordalas' side will take solace in their home form, where they've amassed 29 points from 17 games at the Coliseum this season. However, their recent struggles have cast doubt on their ability to challenge a dominant Atletico Madrid side in what promises to be a fiercely contested local derby.

Bordalas, buoyed by Getafe's recent resilience against Atletico, will aim to build on previous encounters, including a thrilling six-goal draw in December's reverse fixture. However, breaking Simeone's stranglehold over Getafe will be no easy feat, as the Atletico manager seeks to extend his undefeated streak against his local rivals.

I expect Los Rojiblancos to deliver in their fashion, with a minimal victory!

在一场可能确保西甲前四和欧冠资格的关键对决中，马德里竞技将在周三晚上客场对阵当地的对手赫塔菲。

马竞最近的状态令人敬畏，连续三场胜利推动他们在欧洲精英俱乐部比赛中获得梦寐以求的位置。他们最近的胜利是一场艰苦的1-0战胜维戈塞尔塔的比赛，这使他们在这个不稳定的赛季只剩下三场比赛的情况下，以8分的优势领先于排名第四的竞技俱乐部。

罗德里戈·德保罗在对阵维戈塞尔塔的比赛中最后时刻的绝杀使马竞离欧冠资格只有一步之遥，这为他们最近在西甲的连胜势头增添了动力。值得注意的是，他们在最近两场比赛中都保持了零失球，在关键时刻展示了防守的稳固性。

虽然马竞的客场战绩不太好，到目前为止，他们在客场的17场比赛中只取得了6场胜利，但距离体育馆很近，这让他们感到些许安慰。此外，迭戈·西蒙尼在对阵赫塔菲的比赛中取得了令人印象深刻的战绩，他在顶级联赛中18次战胜赫塔菲，是对阵任何一个对手最多的。

值得注意的是，在西蒙尼的执教下，马竞在与赫塔菲的22场联赛中没有输过一场，创造了西班牙足球史上无与伦比的纪录。另一方面，赫塔菲发现自己处于岌岌可危的境地，因为他们连续两场比赛都没有进球。输给加的斯的失望已经使他们进入上半区的希望变得渺茫，奥萨苏纳、塞维利亚和阿拉维斯都在积分榜上紧追在后。

博尔达拉的球队将从主场的状态中得到安慰，他们本赛季在体育馆的17场比赛中获得了29分。然而，他们最近的挣扎让人怀疑他们是否有能力在一场竞争激烈的德比中挑战马德里竞技。

受到赫塔菲最近对马竞的恢复的鼓舞，博尔达拉将以之前的比赛为目标，包括12月的逆转比赛中惊心动魄的6球平局。然而，打破西蒙尼对赫塔菲的束缚并非易事，因为马竞主帅希望能延续他对当地对手的不败纪录。

我希望罗吉布兰科斯队能以他们的方式，以最小的胜利!
