Atletico Madrid vs. Lingdong Emperor Club: The La Liga offensive and defensive battle is about to break out!

-Today's Football - At 3 am on May 11, the 36th round of La Liga will usher in the focus battle between Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad. Atletico Madrid currently ranks third in the league with 67 points, and there is only a slight gap from Barcelona, ​​which is second, and there is still a possibility of a higher ranking; Real Sociedad ranked 11th with 43 points. Although there is no worries about relegation, it needs to strive for the qualification for European competition next season. Judging from the recent status, Atletico Madrid has achieved 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in the last 6 games, scoring 9 goals and conceding 5 goals, and its performance on both offense and defense was balanced; while Real Sociedad's record in the same period was only 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, and both offense and defense efficiency was weak.

Atletico Madrid has 22 wins, 8 draws and 5 losses this season, with 74 points, ranking fourth, with no worries about the Champions League seat but no hope of competing for the championship, and its intention to fight may be concentrated in the final round to consolidate its ranking. He has won 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 6 games, scoring 1.8 goals and conceding 0.8 goals per game, and his condition has recovered on both ends of offense and defense. The team has 14 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss at home, with a winning rate of up to 82%, averaging 2.2 goals and conceded only 0.7 goals, which can be called the "devil's home court". Core players Griezmann (No. 7, 16 goals and 11 assists) and Alvarez (No. 19, 13 goals) form a double-gun combination. The former has excellent dribbling and passes, while the latter has outstanding running and finishing ability; the interception and exit of midfielders Cork (No. 6) and De Paul (No. 5) provide a barrier to the defense. However, the main central defender Jimenez and full-back Molina were injured, and the pressure on the defensive rotation increased sharply, but Atletico Madrid's defensive intensity, which averaged only 0.7 goals per game, is still deterrent.

Real Sociedad is currently in a relatively awkward situation. Since the teams in the previous four rounds of the league only achieved a record of two draws and two losses, the three-point gap between Real Sociedad and seventh place Celta has now widened. For this La Liga powerhouse, it is definitely difficult to accept that not only failed to enter the top five seats in the league, but was squeezed out of the top ten. The club's senior management is also quite dissatisfied with this. The coach Arguyasir, who has coached the team for more than six seasons, will leave the team after the end of the season. So will Real Sociedad show stronger points-grabbing ability in the last four rounds of the league?

Taking into account comprehensively, although Atletico Madrid has the advantage of the home court, Real Sociedad is not without a chance. The result of this game I predicted is: 1-2 0-1, and both sides can show wonderful performances in the game!
