Monaco vs Real Sociedad: Prediction and Betting Tips

A point may well be a good result for Monaco

Undefeated in the Europa League so far this season, Monaco are a win away from securing a Knockout stage spot. In fact, the Monegasques have not suffered a defeat in their last six home games in all competitions. With three clean sheets in that six-match run, Monaco have the best defensive record in Group B of the UEL conceding two goals in four matches.

On the offensive end, coach Niko Kovac’s team are also impressive. To point out, Monaco scored in five of their last six home matches. Also, the Monegasques are averaging two goals a game in their last four matches at the Stade Lous II. In effect, Kovac will be cautious in this match as they play in form Sociedad and rely on his defense for yet another clean sheet.

Real Sociedad on a great away form

Similar to their opponents, Real Sociedad haven’t tasted defeat in the Europa League this term. However, one more draw than Monaco (1W, 2L) has put the White and Blues in the second position with six points. As a result, a win here will take the Basque side to lead group B and secure a last 16 berth.

Notably, Sociedad’s only win in the UEL came away in Sturm Graz. Furthermore, coach Imanol Alguacil will be very confident of his team as they have not lost in their last eight away games. Also, Sociedad scored two goals in their last three games on the road making them a very dangerous offensive team while playing away.

Monaco vs Real Sociedad Prediction

This is one of those matches in which the bookies are uncertain with the winner. Thus the odds are simply high and almost identical. And the reason for that is Monaco’s and Sociedad’s strong performances this season in all competitions.

Nonetheless, looking at both teams’ scoring records, we can clearly see that they score regularly in recent matches. For example, Real Sociedad scored in all of their nine away games this season. Also, two or more goals were scored in Monaco’s home and Sociedad’s away four of their last five matches.

As a result, we think a combo bet of a double chance outcome and over 1.5 goals at Vbet is a logical choice. Especially with a fine odds of 1.73. Hence we will choose two bets from that market for our prediction.
