Prediction

  • Real Sociedad come into this game with a six-game winless run after draws to Mallorca and Roma over the past week. Fernandez scored very early on for Sociedad against Mallorca, but they couldn't hold onto their lead. Matters were made worse when Merino was shown a straight red late on.
  • Elche continue their push for safety after picking up a late draw against Real Valladolid. Second half substitute Tete Morente scored a 96th-minute equaliser to secure the point and leave them 13 points off safety.
  • Mendez scored the only goal in the reverse fixture as Sociedad won 1-0 back in August.
