Atletico Madrid vs Real Sociedad Picks & Predictions

• Atletico Madrid (-117 moneyline)
• Atletico Madrid (-212 futures)

Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad will play the Copa del Rey final on neutral ground. Whoever wins on Saturday will lift the trophy. There is no second chance or second leg. The game lasts 90 minutes. If there is no winner after regulation, they play an extra 30 minutes. If there is no winner still, then we move to the dramatic penalty shoot-out.

Atletico Madrid comes into this game high on confidence. They have reached the Champions League semifinals for the first time in nine years, and they have prevailed against a fantastic FC Barcelona twice: in the Copa del Rey in March and in the Champions League this week.

Real Sociedad will not make Atletico Madrid’s life easy. The team has recently improved its performances and hasn’t lost in the league since December. The Basques are now battling against Celta, Real Betis, and Getafe for a European spot.

Reasons to believe in an Atletico Madrid win

The momentum is crucial whenever we have a decisive match like this one. And Atletico Madrid’s momentum is excellent. The fans, the players, Simeone, the manager, they are all in synch. Having eliminated a strong FC Barcelona from two major knockout competitions is not easy and they know it.

Also, Atletico Madrid’s cup drought has lasted since the 2012/13 season. This is also something to motivate the players. Ending the drought with a Copa del Rey triumph is just one match away, and it is the easiest competition for them to win, since the Champions League is very tough and they have fallen out of the La Liga race (Atletico is fourth with 57 points after 31 matches).

Real Sociedad is the underdog here. The “Whites and Blues,” as they are called, won the cup for the last time in the 2019/20 season. In La Liga, they are 15 points behind Atletico in seventh place.

The two finalists already played their two league games, proving once again that Atletico has a better team than Real Sociedad: 1-1 in San Sebastián and 3-2 for Atletico in Madrid.

So, go with Atletico Madrid for -117 in the moneyline and -212 in the futures.

Atletico Madrid vs Real Sociedad Player Props

• Julian Alvarez to score (+700 Caesars)
• Antoine Griezmann to assist (+400 bet365)

Atletico Madrid has a very talented team, capable of playing on equal terms against any Spanish or European team. They have proven this not only by eliminating FC Barcelona twice, but also by beating Real Madrid, Inter Milan, PSV, and Tottenham Hotspur throughout the season.

Some of the players in the squad have been decisive in the team’s current performance, especially in big games against top opponents. One of them is the Argentine forward Julian Alvarez, who has scored not only important goals but also spectacular ones. The odds for him to find the net against Real Sociedad are +700 at Caesars.

Bettors should also take Antoine Griezmann into consideration. He hasn’t scored so many goals recently, but his passes usually put his teammates in good positions to score. It is very likely he will record an assist at +400 on Bet365.
