Real Sociedad have slumped in their recent matches after a great start to the season and as they head out to Russia to take on Zenit in the Group L UEFA Europa League clash, on their minds will be a return to winning ways having lost each of their last three matches. That will not be easy, however, because they face a team unbeaten in the Russian league and top of the pile after 11 matches. Both sides won their opening group games, Zenit hitting Vardar 5 – 0 and Sociedad whacking Rosenborg 4 – 0 so it will be interesting to see how this one goes. Heading to the game, Zenit parades a run of three wins, a loss and a draw. They have a five – match unbeaten run at home, winning four and drawing one, scoring 14 and conceding once in the process. In their last 10 matches at home, Zenit have lost thrice and in Europa League, the team has lost just once in the last 21. Sociedad have three losses and two wins in their last five matches and playing away from home they have a loss, two wins and two draws, scoring nine and conceding as many. The Spaniards have lost three of their last 10 away matches and this will be only their fifth Europa League game in history. They have lost once in Europa League and won four.
