Espanyol vs Real Sociedad: Predictions and Betting Tips
Key Stats:
- Four wins and one draw for Espanyol in their last five home games
- Espanyol have only conceded two goals in their last five home games
- Three wins and two draws for Real Sociedad in their last five away games
- Real Sociedad have only conceded three goals in their last five games in La Liga Santander
Espanyol
Despite multiple chances to score and secure at least a draw, Espanyol lost the Catalan derby against Barça. Espanyol are playing at home in this match, where very few teams have managed to take points from them this season.
So great is the importance for Espanyo of winning points at home, that of their 17 total points, 14 of them have come at the RCDE Stadium. It’s a good sign that at home they are an almost invincible team, but also bad in the sense that as visitors they are unable to earn points regularly.
Espanyol have one win and four defeats in their last five meetings with Real Sociedad.
Real Sociedad
After drawing their last match 0-0 against Valencia and losing the top spot to Real Madrid, Real Sociedad are looking to keep the Madrid club within their sights.
Real Sociedad are having an incredible season and, as well as being a very reliable team at home, they are the second best away team, with four wins, two draws, and one defeat. They are a very consistent team; they don’t depend on playing at home to win the majority of points, being also reliable as visitors.
The only concern for Real Sociedad in this game is that they have a very important game in the Europa League against Monaco, so it is possible that many players who would normally be expected to play in the match against Espanyol will be too tired.
Espanyol vs Real Sociedad Predictions
As mentioned, Esapnyol at home is a very reliable team and they will be fresher for this match, as they will not be playing midweek, while their opponents, Real Sociedad, will be coming from a tough Europa League match. Under normal conditions we would say that Real Sociedad are favourites to win this match, but, on this occasion, we see both teams as very evenly-matched, so a draw seems a very likely result.
