Real Sociedad take on the visitors Athletic Bilbao at “Anoeta” in the matchday 35 of the Spanish LaLiga. The game will be played in San Sebastian on Saturday, April 28th.
In the previous round Real Sociedad broke their four-clash unbeaten run during which they gained three triumphs, having conceded not a single goal for 410 minutes of football. That away defeat was sensational as “Txuriurdin” failed 0:2 against Malaga which are the worse team of the LaLiga in this season. That loss threw Real Sociedad out of the race for the Eurocups. As a result, with 34 gameweeks behind the side is currently sitting on the 11th position in the elite division table with 44 points earned and 60-54 goal difference, being five points away from the seventh place which allows to participate in the UEFA Europa League in the next season. Real Sociedad conducted 17 encounters at their own turf, having got 27 points with 41 goals for and 26 goals against in them. The club won four out of last five home battles.

Meanwhile, Athletic Bilbao are in a crisis now and in a whole the team failed this season. “The Basques” have managed to record only two triumphs alongside with two draws and six defeats in last 10 tackles played. The side’s no-win series counts for three clashes already, moreover, “Lehoiak” lost 1:3 to Levante in the previous fight. The club is not under the threat of relegation, however, it neither deserves a place in top 10. With 34 rounds behind, Athletic Bilbao settle on the current 14th place in the LaLiga standings with 40 points taken and 37-42 goal difference. “The Basques” demonstrate a humble performance on the road as they picked up only 17 points in 17 away tackles.
Real Sociedad look more consistent in general and at the end of the season in particular. The upcoming hosts show strong game at their own turf while “The Basques” mostly disappoint this year, consequently, Real Sociedad have excellent chances for celebrating a victory in the Saturday clash.
Prediction for the match: Real Sociedad to win.
