Real Sociedad vs Atletico Madrid Prediction

Real Sociedad Form

Consistency has not been a trademark for Real Sociedad recently, and their last three matches first saw them sharing the points in a 1-1 draw with Nice. This was followed by a 3-0 win against Valencia, before they lost 1-2 against Anderlecht. Real Sociedad managed to win two of their past six home matches in the LaLiga. In the remaining four, they drew zero and lost four, as they scored six and conceded eight goals.

Atletico Madrid Form

Atletico Madrid have been inconsistent in their last three matches. They claimed a 0-1 win against Celta Vigo, before drawing 1-1 with Real Madrid. This little streak came to an end, when Benfica proved too strong in a 4-0 defeat for Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid recorded a very decent outcome of four wins from six away matches in the LaLiga, in which they banged in ten goals, whilst conceding three. They remained undefeated, but did draw twice.

Atletico Madrid could find it tough to break down the defensive barriers put up by Real Sociedad at Reale Arena this coming Sunday. The home side doesn't score much themselves, though, and we aim for the under 2.5 goals betting market.

Real Sociedad fought their way to zero wins and zero points from their last two games against teams inside the top six. They were on target zero times in these matches, but also let in three goals. Real Sociedad have a record of two wins, two draws and four defeats in the LaLiga this season. Atletico Madrid are looking at four wins, four draws and zero defeats in the LaLiga.
