Real Sociedad welcomes Atletico Madrid in end-of-season game.
Real Sociedad aims to cap off their season with a third consecutive home win and their first victory over Atletico Madrid in nine encounters, while Atletico seeks to rebound from a recent stumble and finish strong in this intriguing La Liga finale at Anoeta Stadium.
Real Sociedad
Brais Méndez and Mikel Merino were on the scoresheet for Real Sociedad in a 2-0 win over Real Betis last Sunday. This victory helped the White and Blues secure a place in next season's edition of the Europa League.
With 60 points, Imanol Alguacil's men are now four points ahead of 7th-placed Betis, having emerged as champions in last weekend’s battle for a sixth-place finish. Sociedad, who have now won two games in a row, are five points adrift of fifth-placed Athletic Club.
On Saturday, they will face Atletico Madrid in a dead rubber clash. The White and Blues will be hoping to end the season with a win and secure nothing else but bragging rights.
The team has won their last two home games in La Liga, keeping clean sheets in both. Alguacil's side can win three home games without conceding for the first time since a run of four between February and April 2022.
However, the hosts have not won any of their last eight La Liga meetings with Atletico Madrid, their second-longest winless streak against the visitors in the top-flight. A 4-4-2 formation with Mikel Oyarzabal and Sheraldo Becker in attack is expected for Saturday’s clash.
Atlético Madrid
Atletico Madrid saw their four-match winning streak come to an end after a 4-1 loss to Osasuna last Sunday. This defeat condemned the Mattress Makers, who have 73 points (23 wins, 4 draws, and 10 losses), to a 4th place finish.
Atletico Madrid are eight points ahead of 5th-placed Athletic Club (65 points) and five points adrift of 3rd-placed Girona (78 points). Diego Simeone's side will hope to end the season with a win when they visit Sociedad on the final day of the season.
Atletico have won their last two away games in La Liga. They could win three in a row away from home in the competition for the first time since October 2022. However, the visitors have lost on their last two La Liga visits to teams from the Basque Country.
They could record three successive defeats on such visits in the competition under Diego Simeone for the second time, after doing so between 2021 and 2022. Ángel Correa could lead the attack in a 5-4-1 formation on Saturday, as seen against Osasuna. Meanwhile, Gabriel Paulista is suspended due to an accumulated number of yellow cards.
