Diego Simeone's side made a poor start to the league season, winning just one of their opening four games and falling seven points behind Barcelona.
However, they came from behind to beat Monaco in midweek in the Champions League and summer signing Thomas Lemar helped them past Getafe.
The France international's thumping effort of the bar in the first half bounced back off goalkeeper David Soria into the net to give Atletico the lead.
And Lemar sealed the three points after the break, rounding Soria before sliding home from a tight angle.
