RS Vs ATL Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Real Sociedad’s dream run comes to a thudding end .
Sitting atop of the La Liga only a month, Real Sociedad’s honeymoon period is well and truly over in the 2020-21 edition of the league. Failing to register a win across the course of the last month, the side has lost both of its last couple of matches to plummet into third spot in the points.
Making the most of Real Sociedad’s downward spiral, Atletico Madrid have slowly eased themselves into first place. With four wins in their last five matches, Atletico Madrid are the current rulers of the league, a club which has done more than enough to showcase its title challenging credentials.
Having three matches to play over Real Sociedad and currently holding a three point lead over Real Sociedad, Atletico Madrid will be looking to put daylight between themselves and their opponents of the day. A win would see Atletico Madrid hold an outright lead in first place, one which could end up determining the title battle at the end of the season.
RS Vs ATL Fantasy Probable Winner
The rut in which Real Sociedad find themselves makes this a lopsided affair. Atletico Madrid will have little qualms in pulling off the three points on the day.

Fantasy Picks
Goal-Keeper
His backline has gone off the boil but Alex Remiro has not shown any such downtick in form to see him line up for us from Real Sociedad.
Defenders
Atletico Madrid s clear of everyone else when it comes to the defensive side of the game. Although the side has conceded in its last couple of matches, the team continues to remain the most pristine backline, one which has allowed a measly five goals past it.
Always in with a fair shout of embedding in place a shut down, the visiting side sees us opt for a trio in the form of Kieran Trippier, Mario Hermoso and Stefan Savic.
Midfielders
Scoring four times and providing the two assists for Atletico Madrid have seen Marcos Llorente emerge as a crucial player for Atletico Madrid this term. He’s joined by Yannick Carasco who has utilised the flanks fruitfully to offer the side much needed wide support in its attacking plays.
Koke will be wrapping up the trio of picks from the side. Real Sociedad on the other see us make four goal and three assist man, Portu the first pick in this slot. Mikel Merino who has the two assists will be his partner for the day.
Strikers
Scoring on seven occasions to emerge as Real Sociedad’s top scorer, Mikel Oyarzabal was an instant pick for us today. The visiting side also sees its top scorer, striker Luis Suarez make a foray into our side.
Captain And Vice-Captain
The seven goals for Luis see him captain our team while Llorente is the vice-captain.
