Real Sociedad B take on the visitors Zaragoza in the round 42 match of Spanish LaLiga2. The match will be played on Friday, May 27th at Reale Arena (San Sebastian)
Real Sociedad from San Sebastian has several teams in its structure - however, this is more than a popular practice. The first, the main one, plays in the LaLiga, and not without some success: winning the cup a year ago, the struggle, albeit unsuccessful, for 4th place. Well, the B-team has practically no tournament tasks. Yes, Xabi Alonso, the same legendary midfielder who won the maximum trophies with Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern, and won the Euro and World Cup with the national team, already in his second year as the head coach of Real Sociedad B, brought them to Segunda, which has not happened since the early 60s of the last century. As many expected, the "white-blue" could not cope. Although it seemed that there were chances, and recently it even managed to take 3 wins in a row. But this was followed by a couple of defeats, after which there is not even a mathematical chance to stay in this division. But, perhaps, the main result is that at least 3 players will start a new season as players of the first team.

Zaragoza are known for its Cup character - it took the Copa del Rey 6 times, including in 2004. But if since the middle of the last century, the Aragonese have spent the vast majority of years in the Example, only occasionally falling into the Segunda, then since 2013 they have not been able to return to La Liga. There were chances, but the maximum results were achieved in 2018 and 2020, but then there was only 3rd place, and, accordingly, a ticket to the playoffs with subsequent relegation. These relative rises were followed by new failures, with falls below the middle of the standings. In the last draw, the "whites" were 15th, and this time this decline was not replaced by a new increase. Now the wards of Juan Ignacio Martinez scored 53 points and are in 13th position. This despite the fact that after a couple of defeats, it turned out to make good progress in May: away 3-3 with Oviedo and a minimal victory over Lugo. No matter how the last round ends, the glorious team will still finish among the middle peasants.
Real Sociedad B is only playing its first season in the Segunda after a very long pause. So it is not surprising that in September last year there was the first head-to-head in history. It ended 1-1 at Zaragoza. Bookmakers believe that the visitors have a chance to finish the season with a victory. But this is essentially a meaningless duel before the holidays, and you should not expect entertainment. We recommend betting on "total under 2.5 goals"
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored.
