Real Sociedad vs Sevilla: Preview

The hosts bounced back from an opening defeat to record three straight victories in the Spanish top flight, while their visitors arrive with seven points from their first three outings. Real Sociedad won their last league game 2-0 against Cadiz, thanks to a second half brace by Mikel Oyarzabal.

The team from Basque country was also in action in Europe against PSV in the Europa League. Mario Gotze gave his Dutch side the lead before Alexander Isak and Adnan Januzaj scored to come from a goal down to lead 2-1, it was PSV’s Cody Gakpo who scored early in the second half to level matters and as a result both sides sharing a point in their opening Group B match.

Their opponents, Sevilla were also part of continental action midweek in the Champions League against Austrian Champions RB Salzburg. They came out of a game that produced four penalties with a 1-1 draw. The visitors won three spot kicks in the first half but only managed to convert one to take a 1-0 lead, before Lopetegui’s side earned a penalty of their own, with Ivan Rakitic beating the keeper to see the game end level.

Sevilla were held to a 1-1 draw by Elche in their last league game in what was an underwhelming performance from Julen Lopetegui’s men, and will surely look to get back to winning ways when they face Real Sociedad this weekend.

Real Sociedad vs Sevilla: Prediction

With two strong sides in impressive form squaring off, this could certainly go either way, and we cannot quite pick a winner on Sunday. The two teams boast quality all over the pitch, and, while Sevilla might have the slightly superior squad depth, La Real’s home advantage should level the playing field. Hence we predict a draw between these two sides.
