Real Sociedad take on the visitors Girona at the Estadio Anoeta in the 9th tour of the Primera Division. The match will be played in San Sebastian on Monday, October 22nd.
Last tour Real Sociedad won the Basque derby match against Athletic Bilbao with a 3-1 score on the away field. It`s worth noting than only few teams in the Primera Division have been able to get positive results in Bilbao so far this season. Now the Txuri-Urdinak are the favourite in the lead-up to their upcoming match against Girona. Even though the team of Asier Garitano had looked weak in the start of the 2018/2019 Primera Division season they started to improve with time. They lost some league fixtures in a row in the course of the championship. Interestingly, before their victory over Athletic Bilbao they beat Villarreal with a 2-1 score and Leganes with a 1-0 score in the league. Overall, the Erreala have been on a rise recently. In their last three matches Real Sociedad beat Athletic Bilbao with a 3-1 score, lost to Valencia with a 0-1 score and drew against Rayo Vallecano with a 2-2 score.

Girona have been looking weaker this Primera Division season that they had been in the last one. Now they are on the fifteenth place in the league. The best moment for the Blanquivermell so far this season has been their fixture against Barcelona when they have managed to draw against the Blaugrana. That result has happened though mostly because of the defender of Barca Lenglet being removed from the field by the referee in that game. In their last three matches Girona lost to Toulouse with a 0-1 score in a friendly fixture, to Eibar with a 2-3 score and drew against Huesca with a 1-1 score.
Even though Girona have been able to draw against Barcelona recently they have failed in their other previous Primera Division matches. For example, the Blanquivermell have lost to Eibar with a 2-3 score, to Real Betis with a 0-1 score and to Real Madrid with a 1-4 score all this season. It is likely that Real Sociedad will get the victory in the upcoming fixture.
Prediction for the match: Real Sociedad to win.
