Real Sociedad take on the visitors Cadiz in the round 24 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Friday, February 3rd at Reale Arena (San Sebastian).
For the past two rounds, Real Sociedad have failed to please their fans with victories in La Liga. Squad losses were noticeable - first, they drew at home with Celta (1-1), and then they suffered a sensational defeat at Mestalla against Valencia (0-1). Nevertheless, I think that after this round, Imanol Alguacil's team will start winning again. After all, their opponent is more than suitable, and they were meant to beat them. And Sociedad remains the third team in La Liga. However, their competitors are breathing down their necks - Atletico Madrid is only one point behind, and Betis is just three points behind. They have already made all their mistakes, and they cannot afford to make any more, especially in a home game against a team fighting for survival.

Cadiz are just that team, and the fight to stay in the league is still ahead for Sergio Gonzalez's team. Yes, they managed to temporarily leave the relegation zone, but they are only two points away from it. Cadiz are a purely home team that can give problems to anyone on their own turf. The team is currently outside the relegation zone precisely because of three wins in their previous home matches. However, Cadiz was one of the worst teams in the championship and remains so on the road. In four away matches in La Liga after the restart, the team only took points once by beating struggling Valencia. Then they suffered three defeats in a row: 0-1 to Sevilla, 1-4 to Athletic, and 0-2 to Barcelona. It is unlikely that Sergio Gonzalez's team will avoid losing in the fourth consecutive away game of the championship.
Despite all the squad problems of Sociedad and Cadiz, these are teams of completely different levels. There is a huge gap between them! The hosts are fighting for medals and the Champions League zone, while the visitors are fighting for survival. Motivation is through the roof for both teams. But the difference in class and the home-field advantage will decide everything in this match. If the support of their fans at home does not allow Cadiz to play poorly, then in the 11 away matches of the current season, Gonzalez's team suffered seven defeats. In the last five of these matches, they lost four times. In the first-round match of this season, they were even weaker at home against Sociedad (0-1). In general, in the last five personal meetings of the opponents, Real Sociedad has won all five times. I think the favorite will again prove to be stronger than the outsider!
Prediction for the match: Real Sociedad to win.
