What They're Saying

Real Sociedad manager Mikel Gonzalez (via Inside Spanish Football): "All of us are keen to work hard and turn this around, knowing that what we've been doing until now isn't enough. Each and every one of us has to give a lot more. Personally, I feel we deserve to have more points than we have, but we haven't shown the qualities which have characterized this team during the past few seasons."

"We are aware of our position in the table and we are keen to get out of it, start racking up points and regaining the confidence we had before," he added. "It's true that we have have had poor starts and ended well in other seasons, but we can't be thinking about what might happen in two weeks' time. We have to put all of our energies into winning this weekend."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann returns to San Sebastian. The former Real Sociedad striker has four goals in domestic and European competition. Always a danger on the ball, Griezmann is averaging one key pass in league play.

Real Sociedad's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Zubikaral; Yuri, Ansotegi, Martinez, Zaldua; Pardo, Bergara; Castro, Canales, Vela; Agirretxe

Atletico Madrid's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Moya; Siqueira, Godin, Miranda, Juanfran; Koke, Gabi, Tiago, Turan; Mandzukic, Griezmann
