  May 10, 2025   Atlético de Madrid - Real Sociedad   Estadio Metropolitano, Madrid, Spain On Saturday, May 10, 2025, Atlético Madrid will face Real Sociedad in Spanish LaLiga. The Madrid side enters the match as a clear favorite, while the visitors from San Sebastián are struggling with a results crisis. Atlético de Madrid have not lost any of their last 10 LaLiga matches against Real Sociedad (6 wins, 4 draws), since a 0-2 defeat in September 2019. This is their longest unbeaten run against the Basque team in the competition since April 1976 (13 games: 8 wins, 5 draws). At home, Atlético's record is even more impressive. The Madrid side have not lost in their last 11 league matches against Real Sociedad (9 wins, 2 draws), since a 0-1 defeat in March 2013.

  April 24, 2025 Club Atlético de Madrid -  Rayo Vallecano As the Madrid derby between Atlético Madrid and Rayo Vallecano approaches at the Metropolitano on Thursday, April 24, 2025, Diego Simeone's side looks to maintain their historical dominance while overcoming recent derby struggles. Atlético Madrid boasts an impressive 15-match unbeaten streak against their Madrid neighbors (12 wins, 3 draws), their longest such run against Rayo in LaLiga history. The Rojiblancos haven't tasted defeat against Rayo since February 2013, when they fell 1-2 at Vallecas. However, recent form suggests potential vulnerability for Simeone's men. Atlético have failed to win any of their last three LaLiga derbies (1 draw, 2 losses), suffering as many defeats in these three matches as they had in their previous 25 encounters against Madrid-based sides (14 wins, 9 draws, 2 losses). Their general form has also dipped lately, with Atlético losing three of their last six LaLiga matches (2 wins...

  Club Atlético de Madrid - Real Valladolid April 14th, 2025 Monday evening will offer a clash of absolute opposites in the Spanish capital. Atlético Madrid will welcome Real Valladolid at the Metropolitano stadium in a duel where both history and current form speak clearly in favor of the home team. Atlético hasn't lost any of their last 15 matches against Real Valladolid in LaLiga, winning 14 of them (1 draw). Previously, however, the "Colchoneros" lost four of seven mutual duels (2 wins, 1 draw). The home environment is almost a guarantee of victory for Atlético against Valladolid. The Madrid team has won the last seven home matches against this opponent in LaLiga, keeping a clean sheet in each of the last five. Only against UD Las Palmas (6) do they currently have a longer series of home matches without conceding a goal in the competition. Real Valladolid is going through a results crisis in the Madrid region. The "Pucelanos" have lost in their last si...
