Real Sociedad Villarreal betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this clash will be a few goals. It is true that part of the match should be controlled by Real Sociedad, however, it will not be surprising if Villarreal also manage to have several goal situations, as they have a very effective attack. It is worth noting that 67% of Villarreal's away games ended with more than two goals at the end of the 90 minutes. That said and taking these factors into account, taking a risk in favor of the ‘’Over 2.25 Goals’’ market in this game is a good option.

The goals of the match were scored by Mikel Merino (86' ), for Real Sociedad, and by Santi Comesaña (17' and 47' ) and Alexander Sørloth (90' ), for Villarreal.

In the last match, they have lost in an away match against Celta de Vigo by (2‑0), after in the previous match they have tied (0‑0) at home, against Las Palmas. Interestingly enough, this is a team that has had better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 14 points in away matches and only 11 at their stadium. In their last match, for the Copa del Rey, they got an away win against Ponferradina by (0‑2). In the last 9 home league matches Real Sociedad has a record of 3 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 11 points out of 27 possible. 6 of their last 9 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 18 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Real Sociedad come for this clash motivated after a 0-2 victory away to Ponferradina, in a game counting towards the Copa del Rey. In the last round of this La Liga, the home team lost to Celta de Vigo, by 2-0. The home team usually play in a 4-3-3, so in this tactical formation they opt to place three players, Sergio Gómez, Takefusa Kubo and Mikel Oyarzabal, in a more advanced position. In the middle of the field, Luka Sucic, Brais Méndez and Martín Zubimendi could play, with the latter being the boss of the midfield. Hamari Traoré is out of this game due to physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Álex Remiro, Nayef Aguerd, J. Aramburu Mejías, Aihen Muñoz, Elustondo, Luka Sučić, Brais Méndez, Martín Zubimendi, Sergio Gómez, Takefusa Kubo, Mikel Oyarzabal.

In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Rayo Vallecano, by (1‑1). In the last match, they won in an away match against Leganés, by (2‑5).

In their away league matches, the most frequent final score was the 1‑2 (4 out of 9 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 9 of the last 9 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 3.
