Real Sociedad vs Espanyol Prediction & Picks - LaLiga
by Erik Gibbs in LaLiga Picks
Real Sociedad and Espanyol are set to face off in an important La Liga clash at the Reale Arena on Sunday. With Real Sociedad currently sitting in 11th place with 28 points, they will be looking to capitalize on their home advantage to secure another victory. Espanyol, on the other hand, finds themselves in a more precarious position, ranking 16th in the standings with 23 points. Given the points gap and recent form, both teams have a lot at stake in this encounter. Real Sociedad has demonstrated strong performances at home, winning eight of their last 16 matches in front of their supporters. Their ability to secure victories on home soil has been a key factor in their season, and they will be looking to continue that trend against an Espanyol side that has struggled on the road. Espanyol’s away form has been concerning, with five defeats in their last six La Liga matches away from home. Their inability to perform consistently on the road has contributed to their low placement in the standings and will be a significant hurdle in this upcoming fixture. When looking at their recent performances, Real Sociedad has experienced mixed results. They secured a 2-0 win over PAOK Thessaloniki FC but followed that with a disappointing 2-1 loss against Osasuna. However, they managed to bounce back with a solid 2-0 victory over Osasuna in their most recent game. At home, their record over the last six matches includes three wins, one draw, and two losses. Their goal-scoring ability has been somewhat modest during this stretch, with only four goals scored and five conceded.

Our Real Sociedad vs Espanyol Prediction
Espanyol enters this match with an urgent need for points to move further away from the relegation zone. Their recent form suggests they are capable of competing, as they have managed to stay unbeaten in their last three matches. They earned a 2-1 victory over Real Valladolid, followed by a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Sevilla, and then pulled off a surprising 1-0 win over Real Madrid. Despite these results, their away form remains a glaring issue, with five losses and just one draw in their last six away matches. Their offensive struggles are evident, having only scored four goals while conceding 14 in those games. Historically, Real Sociedad has had the upper hand in this fixture, winning five of the last six head-to-head meetings against Espanyol across all competitions. This dominance will likely give them confidence heading into this match. Additionally, both teams have had difficulties in front of goal recently, which could result in a low-scoring affair at the Reale Arena. With Real Sociedad’s home advantage and Espanyol’s poor away record, the hosts appear to have the upper hand in this contest. However, Espanyol’s recent positive results suggest they cannot be counted out entirely. The outcome of this match could have significant implications for both teams as they push for their respective goals in La Liga. Our prediction for Real Sociedad vs. Espanyol: Real Sociedad to win.
