Real Sociedad - LWWLLW
It’s our opinion that Txuri-urdin look set to opt for a 4-3-3 system for this game featuring Alex Remiro, Hamari Traore, Igor Zubeldia, Jon Pacheco, Javi Lopez, Brais Mendez, Martin Zubimendi, Luka Sucic, Takefusa Kubo, Mikel Oyarzabal and Sergio Gomez.
Real Sociedad will be hoping for a repeat of their last result, following a 0-1 La Liga triumph against Espanyol.
In that match, Real Sociedad managed 66% possession and 8 attempts at goal with 3 on target. The scorer for Real Sociedad was Takefusa Kubo (80'). At the other end, Espanyol got 13 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target.
Under three goals per game were scored during 5 of the past 6 meetings where Real Sociedad have been involved. In terms of the goal distribution in this period, opposing sides scored a total of 6 and Real Sociedad totted up 5. That kind of pattern isn’t assured to be continued into this game, of course.
Going into this game, the form guide shows that Real Sociedad:
have not been beaten in the league by Alaves in their last 6 games.
have not won at home in their last 2 league games.
Alaves - DLWDLD
We’re of the thinking that Babazorros will likely elect for a 4-2-3-1 lineup with a starting lineup of Antonio Sivera, Hugo Novoa, Abdelkabir Abqar, Moussa Diarra, Manuel Sanchez, Antonio Blanco, Ander Guevara, Carlos Vicente, Jon Guridi, Tomas Conechny and Kike Garcia.
In the game prior to this, Alaves drew 0-0 in the La Liga tie with Real Betis.
In that match, Alaves managed 37% possession and 5 attempts at goal with 1 on target. For their opponents, Real Betis had 15 shots at goal with 3 of them on target.
Throughout their six latest matches, Luis García Plaza's Alaves have turned their attacks into goals a total of 6 times, yielding them a goals per game average of 1.
Leading up to this clash, Alaves:
have not won against Real Sociedad when they've played them away from home in the last 4 matches in the league. Not good at all.
have not won away from home in their last 3 league matches.
Real Sociedad possible starting lineup:
Remiro; Traore, Zubeldia, Martin, Lopez; Kubo, Zubimendi, Turrientes, Mendez; Oyarzabal, Becker
Alaves possible starting lineup:
Sivera; Novoa, Abqar, Diarra, Sanchez; Benavidez, Guevara; Romero, Guridi, Conechny; Garcia
Real Sociedad vs Deportivo Alaves Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
*The two teams have squared off 49 times in all competitions. The hosts have the upper hand in these meetings with twice the number of wins (26) as the visitors (13) and 10 games having ended in draws.
*The hosts are unbeaten in their last six meetings against the visitors. They registered an away win last season while the reverse fixture ended in a draw.
*The hosts have kept six clean sheets in their last nine league meetings against the visitors and have failed to score just twice in these games.
*Real Sociedad have suffered just one loss in their last 11 home meetings against the visitors. They have registered eight wins in that period while keeping five clean sheets.
*Deportivo Alaves have won just one of their last eight away games in La Liga, failing to score in five games.
*Alaves have scored just two goals in their last six meetings against the hosts while conceding eight goals.
Prediction: Real Sociedad 2-0 Alaves
Real Sociedad would have taken confidence from Kubo's late winner in Saturday's clash with Espanyol, and we think that they will build upon that result by claiming a win against an Alaves side they have beaten in three of the last five competitive meetings.
