We predict Real Sociedad to win 2-0. Villarreal underperformed in recent weeks, having won one of their last 10 matches in all competitions, while Real Sociedad won 4 and drew 3 matches in their last 10 games.
There’s a decent chance Real Sociedad vs Villarreal will end with under 2.5 goals, as seven of Real Sociedad’s last ten matches ended with under 2.5 goals, and five of Villarreal’s ten matches ended similarly.
Real Sociedad endured mixed reactions in the last few weeks, after they won four and drew three of their last ten matches across all competitions. They bounced back to winning ways last time out when they beat Mallorca 2-1 away from home in La Liga, and they will want to maintain that form in a bid to remain in the top six.
Villarreal underperformed in the last few weeks, after they only managed one win in their last ten matches. They drew four of their last five league matches, and are unlikely to get back to winning ways against Real Sociedad this weekend due to their poor form. The Yellow Submarines are six points off the relegation zone, occupying the 13th position with 26 points.
