Match preview

Atletico head into the final with mixed signals. On one side, Simeone’s team showed their pedigree by eliminating Barcelona to reach the Champions League semi-finals. On the other, their overall form has dipped sharply, with five defeats in their last six matches, including a 1-2 loss to Sevilla in La Liga.

Still, knockout competitions often bring out Atletico’s best qualities. They are known for their discipline, patience, and ability to capitalize on even the smallest errors. The Griezmann–Alvarez partnership remains their main attacking weapon, while the expected return of Oblak could provide added stability in a high-pressure encounter.

Real Sociedad arrive better prepared in terms of rhythm and recovery. With a full week between matches, they come off an entertaining 3-3 draw against Alaves and continue to push for European spots domestically.

Their cup form has been particularly impressive: six consecutive wins highlight both consistency and confidence in knockout football. Historically, Sociedad have also fared well against Atletico in this competition, adding another layer of intrigue to the final.

Atletico Madrid: Oblak, Molina, Le Normand, Lenglet, Ruggeri, Simeone, Llorente, Koke, Lookman, Alvarez, Griezmann

Real Sociedad: Marrero, Aramburu, Martin, Elustondo, Gomez, Soler, Turrientes, Sucic, Mendez, Barrenetxea, Oyarzabal
