Barcelona came from behind to earn a fairly comfortable win after trailing at half-time in their clash with Real Oviedo earlier this week.
The Blaugrana have now won 11 of their last 12 matches across all competitions and are second in La Liga with 16 points from a possible 18.
On the other hand, Real Sociedad’s 1-0 victory over Mallorca earlier this week was their first win of the season. Sergio Francisco's troops are 16th in La Liga with a 1-2-3 win-draw-loss record.
All things considered, it is unsurprising that Barcelona are the expected winners at 2/7 (1.29). Teams with these odds generally have a 77.8% probability of winning.
