SEVILLA VS REAL SOCIEDAD PREVIEW & PREDICTION
The Andalusian side leaves as a favorite due to the offensive potential that it possesses, which usually increases when it acts in the Sánchez Pizjuán. For this reason and knowing that the Basques often have problems to score, we believe that the simple triumph of the local has value in this opportunity. Remember that you need the points to sneak into the next Europa League and cut the losing streak.
Seville:
The Andalusians do not come well to this duel after losing 2-1 to Levante as visitors and add several games without winning the competition. The team is hit from the soul and has been left with 48 points in the table. He is no longer in the Europa League zone, having to win if he wants to stay in the fight until the end of the competition.
As a local, Sevilla has reaped diverse results in the Sánchez Pizjuán, lacking greater balance and strength in defensive matters (8 wins, 5 draws and 3 falls, scoring 26 goals and conceding 20 in his fence). It comes from losing 2-5 with Atlético de Madrid, to overcome 2-0 to Sevilla, to lose 0-2 with Valencia, to equal 2-2 with Barcelona and to draw 2-2 against Villarreal.
Real Sociedad:
The Basques arrive toned to this duel after beating 3-1 at Athletic Bilbao in the classic and totaling 46 units in total. They have registered 4 wins in their last 5 presentations, managing to get into the fight to qualify in the next Europa League. These days, the team is being more balanced, noticing the hand of the new coach. Before with Eusebio there was no defensive solidity, it cost him a lot to score well. Of course, it is still dapper and offensive from midfield forward.
As a visitor, the Real Sociedad has alternated good and bad results in this condition, costing him to be compact at the time of scoring (4 wins, 4 parities and 9 falls, scoring 19 goals and conceding 28 in his goal). His last outings were the following: Draw 0-0 with Betis, defeat 2-1 with Espanyol, parity 0-0 with Eibar, victory 0-1 with Las Palmas and fall 2-0 against the descended Malaga.
The last duel held by both teams was in the first round of the championship and the result was favorable for the Real Sociedad in Anoeta (3-1). In the Sánchez Pizjuán, the Basques won 1-2 in April 2016 and drew 1-1 in May 2017.
PREDICTION: Sevilla to win @ 1.78
