R. Oviedo vs Real Sociedad Prediction & Tips
Real Oviedo’s return to La Liga after a 24-year absence is proving very difficult… The newly promoted side are still searching for their first points ahead of their third match against Real Sociedad. Cazorla’s team have a leaky defence, while their attack has been slow to show its effectiveness after two disappointing performances against Villarreal (2-0) and Real Madrid (0-3) last weekend. With seven goals conceded in their last four games, the current 19th-placed side, who are in the relegation zone, have cause for concern against a Real Sociedad side sitting mid-table (11th).
Real Sociedad are still unbeaten in the Spanish league ahead of their trip to the Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere. The Basque club are unbeaten in their last seven games, including friendlies and league matches, and are on a run of five consecutive draws against Rennes (1-1) and Bournemouth (1-1 and 0-0) in pre-season friendlies, followed by draws against Valencia (1-1) and Espanyol Barcelona (2-2) in the Spanish league in the first two games of the new season. The Basques will be looking to secure their first win in Oviedo against an opponent they already beat in the Copa del Rey (2-0) in December 2014.
