Bookmaker Ratings prediction two – Under 2.5 Total match goals – 1.80
Bookmaker Ratings prediction three – Handicap -1 goal Real Sociedad – 2.50
Match Predict – Home Win and Two or more total match goals
Real Sociedad are the hardest home team to score against and Alaves are the second worst away team, with only one win in 13 matches. We see Real Sociedad as clear favourites for this match.
Under 2.5 Total match goals
In 13 matches at the Reale Arena, a total of 16 goals have been scored, ten goals in favour of Real Sociedad and only six goals against, which means an average of 1.23 total goals per match.
Handicap -1 goal Real Sociedad
Six of Alaves’ nine away defeats so far have been by a difference of at least two goals. For this reason, we think it is a good Handicap to deduct a goal from Real Sociedad and that they still win the match.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Real Sociedad vs Alaves
Real Sociedad lost 4-1 the previous matchday against Real Madrid, despite the fact that they were facing the best team in the competition, the image that Real Sociedad gave was quite bad, unable to generate dangerous chances, beyond the goal scored by penalty in the first minutes of the match.
After conceding two first-half goals in the defeat against Madrid, Real Sociedad’s run of nine consecutive games without conceding in the first 45 minutes of play came to an end. A very difficult thing to achieve.
What is most worrying now at Real Sociedad is the team’s lack of goals, as in 27 games they have scored 28 goals, approximately one goal per game, it is hard to believe that this team is in sixth place, scoring so few goals.
On the Alaves side, the best news for them is that they have improved defensively, especially in the first 45 minutes, as they have now gone six games in a row without conceding a goal in that period.
The bad news for Alaves is that this matchday they are the away team, being the second worst team in this respect having won just one of their 13 games so far. They are, after Levante, the second team that conceded the most goals, with 29 goals in 13 games.
Safe Bets
That matches at the Reale Arena Stadium are not much fun is nothing new, as in 13 games played there have only been a total of 16 goals. We think that this trend of low total goals can also occur this time and that the match will have less than 2.5 total goals. This bet has odds of 1.80 at William Hill.

Highlighted Player
Mikel Oyarzabal
Apart from the lack of danger in Real Sociedad’s attack, if it weren’t for Mikel Oyarzabal, the attacking level would be even lower. Being a player with a very good shot on the ball, he is always a threat to opponents.
