Prediction published on 14/04/2024, 06:57  by Sridhar in LaLiga Predictions

Real Sociedad will look to keep pushing for a top-five finish as they welcome the basement club Almeria. This match at the Anoeta Stadium on Sunday will be the 31st match of the season for both teams. Sociedad is sixth with 49 points, while the visitors are at the at the bottom with 13 points. The hosts are seven points behind Athletic, as the race for a top-five finish is looking increasingly difficult. Yet, Sociedad would be keen to keep winning and take advantage of a slip by Athletic. Thankfully for the home fans, Sociedad’s form has improved at the right time. They have won their last three league games, including two straight clean sheets. That said, this venue hasn’t been the best of venues for the home team. Sociedad have just one win from their last six home league matches, drawing three and losing two.

Almeria are stuck at the bottom of the table, 15 points adrift of safety with 24 points left to play for. That leaves them close to being the first team to get relegated this season, although that has been a fair conclusion for a long time. The visitors lost 3-0 to Osasuna last time out, failing to build on a draw and a win in their last two matches preceding that result. In fact, their recent form has been slightly better, with one win and four draws from their last seven league matches. They even won their last away match, but that was a rare win, as it was preceded by nine defeats from ten away league games.
