Atlético Madrid are set to welcome Real Sociedad to the Riyadh Air Metropolitano on Saturday in a La Liga encounter that holds significance for both sides, albeit for different reasons. Atlético currently sit in third place with 67 points and are on the brink of securing Champions League qualification. Real Sociedad, on the other hand, occupy 11th place with 43 points and are still fighting for a potential European spot, sitting just one point off the UEFA Conference League qualification zone.
The home side, managed by Diego Simeone, have endured a mixed run during the spring. Once contenders for a treble earlier in the season, Los Rojiblancos have seen their campaign stall somewhat in recent months.
However, they remain defensively solid and have managed consecutive clean sheets in their last two La Liga fixtures, including a goalless draw against Alaves. Despite their recent dip in form, Atlético’s overall league performance remains strong, with a 56% win rate and no fresh injury concerns apart from Rodrigo Riquelme, who remains sidelined.

Our Atletico Madrid vs Real Sociedad Prediction
Real Sociedad are transitioning into a new era with a coaching change expected this summer. Their current campaign has been inconsistent, but they remain in the hunt for a top-eight finish. A goalless draw in last weekend’s Basque derby against Athletic Club showed defensive discipline but also highlighted their attacking struggles. Away from home, Sociedad have lost half of their last six league matches, a worrying trend as they head into a tough away trip. Their squad will be without several key players, including Igor Zubeldia, Alvaro Odriozola, and Arsen Zakharyan, all ruled out due to injuries.
With Atlético looking to mathematically confirm a third-place finish and lock in Champions League football, motivation will be high, especially in front of their home supporters. While Real Sociedad remain competitive and dangerous, their injury list and inconsistent form on the road may hamper their chances in the capital.
Given the contrasting momentum and depth of each squad, Atlético Madrid enter the fixture as strong favorites. A professional performance from Simeone’s men should be enough to secure all three points and potentially clinch their place in Europe’s top club competition for next season. Our prediction for Atletico Madrid vs. Real Sociedad: Atletico Madrid to win.
