Leganes – Sociedad

carlos vela real sociedad goal

Leganes and Real Sociedad will meet in the opening match of Primera Division’s 10th round.

With 10 points in 8 rounds and sitting dangerously close to the red zone, Leganes definitely needs to get something from this game. Unfortunately for the hosts, premises are not good. Leganes is in dreadful form with 3 losses in the last 4 games and only managed to avoid defeat against the worst team in the league, Granada. Leganes has lost the last two against Sevilla and Malaga, allowing 7 goals in the process.

Real Sociedad is currently sitting on the 7th place in La Liga after a pretty decent run of form, but their position is a bit misleading – there are just 3 points difference between the 7th placed Sociedad and the 14th placed Leganes! The visitors are on the back of a 3-0 win against Alaves, their third consecutive victory at home. Howevern, on the road Sociedad has not been as good, losing 3 consecutive matches and 3 out of 4 overall.

Team news & lineups:

Leganes has a full squad available, while Sociedad will miss Granero, Agirretxe and Bergara.

Leganes: Serantes – Diaz, Medjani, Mantovani, Rico – Perez, Timor – Ramos, Gabriel, Szymanowski – Neves

Real Sociedad: Rulli – Martinez, Martinez, Navas, Yuri – Prieto, Illarramendi, Zurutuza – Oyarzabal, Vela, Jose

The visitors are hands down the better team here and even if they are no world beaters, they have a great chance to take advantage of the horrible form and pathetic defense of Leganes. Sociedad is pretty capable up front, so if Leganes continues to defend like they did lately, there will be problems for the hosts.

Sociedad might have poor stats on the road, but all losses came in very close games against good teams like Bilbao, Villarreal or even Eibar. What’s more, Leganes is far from strong at home, losing 3 out of 4. As such, I don`t think Sociedad will have that much problems playing this game away from home.

I think Real Sociedad has the first chance here and should win the match. However, you can`t rule out a draw, so I will protect my bet with a +0 asian handicap. My tip is Real Sociedad Draw no bet. Prediction: Leganes – Real Sociedad 1-2.

Pick: Real Sociedad (+0 Asian Handicap)
