Potrero metro station^[a] is a station of the Mexico City Metro built along Insurgentes Norte Avenue in the colonias (neighborhoods) of Capultitlan and Guadalupe Insurgentes, in Gustavo A. Madero, Mexico City. It is an at-grade station with one island platform served by Line 3 (the Olive Line) between Deportivo 18 de Marzo and La Raza stations. The station and its surrounding area are named this way because there used to be a hippodrome during the Porfiriato era (1876–1911) and its pictogram features the silhouette of a head of a horse behind a fence. The station was opened on 1 December 1979, on the first day of service between Indios Verdes and Hospital General metro stations.

In 2019, the station had an average daily ridership of 17,308 passengers, making it the 106th busiest station in the network and the third-least used in the line. The facilities are partially accessible to people with disabilities as it is equipped with access ramps.
