Real Sociedad vs Atletico Madrid – Preview and betting tips

Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid will close the 11th fixture in Spain Primera Division, the game between these two sides being scheduled today from 20:00 (UK Time) and the away side is starting with the first chance if we take a look at the bookmakers offers.

Real Sociedad the most dissapointing team this season in Spain, considering that they have fought for a place in the first 6 in the last 2-3 seasons. The bascs are on the 19 position right now, with only six points in their account and with a bad goal difference of 10-15, the attack being one of the main problems. Sociedad will be without Rulli, De la Bella and Elustondo. More than that, Pardo and Cadamuro are in doubt.

Atletico Madrid are coming here after three victories in a row in La Liga and five in all competitions. They won 2-0 against Malmo away five days ago in Champions League, being 99% already qualified in the last 16 round. If we talk about La Liga, Atletico are on the fourth place at the moment, with 23 points, four behind Real Madrid, but a victory here could get them back on podium, one point behind the galactics. Good news for Simeone are that he will have no missing player for this match.

Sociedad vs Atletico Madrid probable lineups:
Sociedad (4-2-3-1): Zubikarai – Zaldua, Martinez, Ansotegi, Yuri – Bergara, Pardo – Vela, Canales, Castro – Agirretxe.
