Team News

Atletico
Real Sociedad
  • Memphis Depay and Jose Maria Gimenez are fresh additions to the injury list and are a blow for Diego Simeone's side.
  • Atletico reluctantly boast nine first team injuries at the time of writing.
  • Alvaro Morata will likely return to the starting eleven following his one-game suspension.
  • Kieran Tierney has picked up a fresh injury. Aihen Munoz should replace him.
  • Although fielding a very similar eleven against Salzburg in the Champions League, Sociedad should start their strongest side.
  • Take Kubo should start as always, following his fantastic goal - and subsequent 'twerk' in the Basque derby.

Prediction

  • In this October six-pointer, a victory for either side will take them into the fourth Champions League spot, behind Girona, Barcelona, and Real Madrid.
  • Atletico are ranked second best in the league at home, only behind Girona; Sociedad, though, have not lost a game in five attempts.
  • The hosts have not kept a clean sheet at the Wanda this season, and Sociedad will be no pushover. An away win could be likely given the form the visitors are in.
