The final match of the Primera Division season between Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid should be an entertaining affair even though both sides know exactly where they will finish in the table.

Sociedad have secured sixth place and a spot in the Europa League, while Atletico Madrid have qualified for the Champions League again and can't budge from fourth.

Real Sociedad current form

Real Sociedad's recent form has been up and down which hammered any hopes of a late push for Champions League qualification.

Atletico have lost their status as the third-best team in La Liga this season after another slightly inconsistent campaign.

Los Colchoneros lost their last game 4-1 at home against Osasuna, but prior to that, they won four in a row against Athletic Bilbao, Mallorca, Celta and Getafe.
