Real Sociedad vs Atl. Madrid Prediction & Betting Tips (6 October)

To say that Real Sociedad come into this contest in poor form would be somewhat of an understatement, with the LaLiga strugglers suffering 11 defeats in their previous 15 top-flight matches. Although Atl. Madrid have not been firing on all cylinders this season, the fact remains that the Atl. Madrid have enjoyed eight wins in their last 11 fixtures at this level.

High-flying Real Sociedad don’t tend to be involved in too many thrillers, with 15 of their previous 20 home matches in the LaLiga serving up under 2.5 goals. This is a state of affairs that Atl. Madrid have become familiar with in recent away games, as six of their last nine top-flight trips have also fallen into this same low-scoring category.

Over the course of their previous 18 matches at this elite level of the LaLiga, Real Sociedad have been involved in no fewer than 14 contests in which at least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet. This has also been the case in 16 of the last 19 Atl. Madrid away games in the top-flight, so don’t expect the net to bulge at both ends in this encounter.
