Benzema's equal in the derby barely slowed Atletico's race towards the championship.
In the painful recovery with Athletic he won once again thanks to Suarez and now, with equal matches, he has +6 on Barca and +8 on Real with 12 games to go and should not suffer at Getafe.
But Simeone's team remains the favorite.
Now his main opponent seems to be Messi's Barca, who came out of the Champions League with dignity after the collapse of the Nou Camp with PSG and seems reassured by the presidency obtained by Laporta.
The Catalans, who have had eight wins and one draw in La Liga since January, shouldn't struggle to host Huesca.
After the double knockout in the King's Cup and in the Champions League, Sevilla try to secure fourth place and are expected from the derby with Betis.
