Real Sociedad vs Manchester United predictions for this Europa League dispute on Thursday at Allianz Stadium. A big game is waiting between one of the revelation teams in Spain this season and The Red Devils, one of the favourites to win the tournament.
Real Sociedad
Real Sociedad gets to this game with two consecutive wins with a lot of confidence. The Spanish team gets to this game with all the players available with the exception of the striker Carlos Fernández.
The Basques are looking to go for the next round of the Europa League, a competition that hasn’t played since the 2014/15 season. Will they continue their road to the final?
Manchester United
Manchester United also gets to this game in good form. After winning 9-0 to Southampton and the two draws in the league. The Red Devils are far away from the top leaders in the Premier League, so the main objective of the season could be the Europa League as they will be trying to get some silverware at the end of the season.
The English side is one of the teams with the most average goals in the European leagues, due to the amazing form of Bruno Fernandes, Rashford, or Cavani.
They know they are one of the favorites to win the tournament, as they did it in the 2016/17 season with Jose Mourinho as manager.
Key Stats
Real Sociedad vs Manchester United predictions
Although the stats of the group stages show us something different, Real Sociedad has incredible offensive potential with players like Oyarzabal, Isak, Portu, Januzaj, or David Silva.
If we said that Real Sociedad’s offensive potential is incredible, what can we say about Manchester United?, 50 goals for now in Premier League and 15 goals scored in group stages of the Champions League.
It’s also important to mention that the match will be played in a neutral stadium, so Real Sociedad will not be helped by homecourt advantage and that will help Manchester United to increase their possibilities to score.
We predict over 2.5 goals for this match.
