Oviedo vs Real Sociedad prediction: Could Sociedad claim their first win of the season?

Key stats

  • Real Sociedad have won three of their last five head-to-head meetings.
  • The away side are undefeated in their last five matches across all competitions.
  • The hosts have lost three and drew one of their last four matches.

Correct score prediction: Oviedo 1-2 Real Sociedad

Real Oviedo's route back to the Spanish top flight was nothing less than inspirational, especially with former Villarreal and Arsenal man, Santi Carzola, who played a pivotal role in ensuring his beloved team made a return to the top division after a 24-year absence.

That said, the hosts have found life in the top division tough, and they have struggled in their first two fixtures back, losing both games and failing to register a goal, while they have picked the ball out of their net five times already.

Although it is still early days, fans of the Blues will be hoping their team start racking up points in their bid to stay up, but they face yet another tough task when Sociedad comes calling at the weekend. Therefore, we are backing the visiting side to claim all three points on Saturday.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Close call

  • HOME: 12/5 (3.40) – 29.40%
  • DRAW: 21/10 (3.10) – 32.30%

The Japanese international opened his goalscoring account in their first outing, but he could not find the back of the net in their last La Liga match.

Last season, he managed five goals, with two coming against promoted sides Espanyol and Leganes. Given his trickery and his eye for goal, he could be a thorn on the flesh of the Oviedo defenders this weekend.
