Real Sociedad hosts Atletico Madrid in round 15 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Tuesday, December 22nd at Reale Seguros Stadium (San Sebastian)
Last season, the Basques stayed close to the Champions League for a long period of the championship but lost all their agility towards the end. Now Imanol Alguacil's wards occupy an intermediate third place in the championship standings. Sociedad's competitors are on the alert, and it's too early to talk about real claims to the title or at least the top three of LaLiga. The club has not changed in terms of personnel against the background of last season, except for the arrival of David Silva from Manchester City. The former leaders help the team to gain positive results (Oyarzabal, Porto, William Jose, Illaramendi, Zubeldia, and Merino).

Many experts consider the Madrid grandee as the main contender for the champion’s title. Diego Simeone bets on the result in the local arena. As for the Champions League, the Mattress Makers made it to the next stage with great difficulty. Atlético has 2-3 matches in reserve compared to its main rivals for the title. The club practically does not make mistakes in defense and works effectively in the attack. The game with Real Madrid as the only failure for the capital's team (a 0:2 defeat). Atlético's management has made important personnel changes by signing contracts with experienced Suarez, Carrasco, and Condogbia and loaning Torreira. Joao Felix, Llorente, Correa, and Trippier are showing significant progress against the background of last season.
It will be the match of two direct competitors in the standings. No one expected to see Real Sociedad in such a high place, and the team from San Sebastian has every chance of returning to the Champions League. Atlético has a great opportunity to win the coveted title by taking advantage of the crisis of its competitors (Real Madrid and Barcelona). We are looking forward to pragmatic football and low scoring indicators.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
