Two sides with plenty of ambition face off at the Reale Arena as Real Sociedad welcome Villarreal for what promises to be a high-tempo affair. The Basques have been on the rise lately, collecting 10 points from their last six home matches. Their attacking numbers tell the story: 1.5 goals scored per game on average and over 67% of their matches hitting the over 2.5 mark. Yet, they’ve conceded 1.33 per outing, not exactly watertight. Still, with Gonçalo Guedes and Takefusa Kubo linking up, this team can turn any half-chance into a statement goal.
Sergio Francisco’s men will be frustrated by the growing injury list, Oyarzabal’s absence stings most. Even so, their recent 3-1 win over Osasuna showed depth and determination, with goals spread across the attack. You could sense the energy around the club shifting. “We’re finding rhythm again,” Francisco hinted after that victory. Whether they can maintain that rhythm against one of Spain’s most structured sides, though, is another question entirely.
Villarreal arrive in San Sebastian bruised but not broken after a rough Champions League night in Dortmund. That 4-0 loss hurt, no doubt, but it doesn’t tell the whole story. In La Liga, Marcelino’s side have been consistent and clinical, nine wins, two draws, just two defeats. They average 1.33 goals per match and boast the joint-best defensive record in the league, conceding only 11 times. For a team that thrives on balance, that’s no small feat.
Even so, this fixture feels unpredictable. Both sides have found the net in 67% and 50% of their recent games respectively, and five of the last eight head-to-heads saw over 2.5 goals. There’s tension and talent in equal measure here and maybe, just maybe, Villarreal’s defensive steel gives them the edge. That said, LaLiga Predictions often remind us: nothing comes easy at the Reale Arena.
Sergio Francisco highlighted that Real Sociedad expect a demanding clash against a Villarreal side he considers to have the strongest squad in its history. The coach noted his team’s improving form, boosted by the return of Igor Zubeldia, and stressed the importance of starting matches better and maintaining clean sheets. He insisted La Real will compete “tú a tú” despite Villarreal’s impressive momentum. Source: MARCA
Backing Villarreal on the double chance (X2) looks smart given their steady form and defensive discipline. The Yellow Submarine have the joint, best defensive record in La Liga, conceding just 11 goals in 13 matches. Away from home, they’ve earned 10 points in six outings, a record that shows resilience under pressure. Real Sociedad, while strong at home, have conceded in 67% of their recent matches and struggle against teams who press high and counter fast. Marcelino’s squad, with Gerard Moreno leading the line and Foyth marshalling the back, have the tools to frustrate Sociedad’s attack. The hosts will miss Oyarzabal’s creativity, which could limit their fluidity in the final third. Villarreal’s ability to stay compact, absorb pressure, and hit on transitions makes them dangerous travelers. Given Sociedad’s defensive leaks and Villarreal’s momentum, avoiding defeat feels like the logical bet.
