FC Midtjylland vs Real Sociedad Prediction & Betting Tips - Europa League
by Kennedy Kechula | in Europa League Predictions
One of the Europa League knockout round play-off matches lined up for this Thursday will see Danish side Midtjylland and Spanish representatives Real Sociedad face off. Midtjylland were drawn to host this first leg, and will be looking to make the most of it. Let’s have a look at the preview as we offer two predictions on the possible outcomes from this match.
At the close of the league phase, only two points separated these two teams. Real Sociedad finished in 13th place in the league phase with as many points, having won four of their eight matches. Midtjylland finished much lower, in 20th position after the first eight matches of the competition.
While the gap seems huge, the two teams were only separated by two points, another interesting aspect about the new Europa League format. Midtjylland haven't played competitively since the end of January; they have a big game here.

FC Midtjylland - Real Sociedad: Form Analysis
Midtjylland are returning to action, at least competitively, for the first time since their 2-2 draw with Fenerbahce at the close of January. In that game, they led, lost their lead and had to settle for a late draw.
That marked a second unbeaten outing for the hosts but they’ll want to do better. A first leg advantage will be desirable for the Danish side, seeing that they have a history of struggles away from home.
In their last eight matches on the road, Midtjylland lost six. It may be a cause for alarm for Midtjylland that of their three wins in the league phase, only one came at home.
Midtjylland last played competitively at the end of January.
Real Sociedad will want to look at themselves as the more match-fit of these two sides. They have featured in three competitive matches since Midtjylland last played.
It serves them well psychologically that they are coming off two straight wins after a shock loss to Osasuna in La Liga. Winning three of their last four Europa League matches will also give the Spaniards a boost.
Those wins came accompanied with clean sheets and Sociedad will also feel defensively solid. They may, however, want that more on their travels, having failed to win the last two in this competition, and conceding in all four.

FC Midtjylland & Real Sociedad Squad Analysis
With the Danish Superliga going into a lengthy winter break, Midtjylland must have had a lot of time to prepare. That period of rest has, however, not changed much as far as Cho Gue-sung’s injury is concerned.
He will not feature in the knockouts after being left out of the squad to recover from a long term injury.
Goalkeeper Elias Olafsson is also likely to miss this match with injury. There will be some new blood though, in Dani Silva, a new signing.
Injured Alvaro Odriozola is also suspended for this game.
At Real Sociedad, Alvaro Odriozola is serving a one-match suspension, even though he wouldn’t have featured. He is out injured and could be joined in the infirmary by Aihen Munoz and Hamari Traore.
Igor Zubeldia offers Sociedad some positive news with his recovery in time for this match. He did miss the weekend game, but earlier in the week returned to training.

Our FC Midtjylland vs Real Sociedad Prediction
Real Sociedad and Midtjylland will be putting in the line two-game unbeaten runs as they go head-to-head. Each side will want to protect theirs, while at the same time seeking a first leg advantage in this tie.
Midtjylland at home, registered one win in four matches and in the search for a home win, will pump much into the attack. Real Sociedad will definitely find pockets of space as they look to improve their own away run. With both sides struggling defensively, goals on either end could be a good pick here. Our prediction for Midtjylland v Real Sociedad is: Both teams to score.
FC Midtjylland vs Real Sociedad - Other Interesting Predictions
over 2.5 goals
Three of Midtjylland’s last five matches witnessed at least three goals scored. They’ve been prolific in attack themselves, but at times falling short in defence. This match could bear a similar scenario.
Real Sociedad aren’t too removed from a similar case; three of their last five matches produced over 2.5 goals. Their previous three away matches in this competition also had at least three goals. Our second prediction for this match will thus be over 2.5 goals.
