Real Sociedad hosts Sevilla in round 5 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Sunday, September 19th at Reale Arena (San Sebastian)
Real Sociedad also showed a very promising start in the previous season. Then they even started talking about the times when the club climbed into the Champions League. Truth be told, this original team lacked a groove for the whole championship and gradually slowed down. On the other hand, 2021 will go down in history anyway, because the title finally went to San Sebastian: in the final of Copa del Rey 2020, Real Sociedad managed to beat the neighbors from Athletic Bilbao. Imanol Alguacil's charges started the new season with a 4-2 defeat, but it was a voyage to Barcelona. All other matches against Rayo Vallecano, Levante, and Cadiz ended in victories. However, the upcoming opponent will be more difficult. And there was a minimum of rest: on Thursday, Real Sociedad played against PSV in the Europa League, and also away.

In general, Sevilla is a strong club, which was unexpectedly listed among the contenders for the title in the spring in the previous season. The trio of grandees began to lose points synchronously, and the Red-and-Whites managed to come close to them. But in the end, they took their already quite familiar fourth place. The new season started with a couple of victories over Rayo Vallecano and Getafe. But those results were slightly overshadowed by a draw against modest Elche, and Sevilla even had to win back. September started with a match in the Champions League against Salzburg (in La Liga, the game against Barcelona was postponed due to the tight calendar of the national teams). And Sevilla needs to rejoice: Bono conceded after only one out of three penalty kicks, and the Red-and-Whites had to finish the game with ten men. And who is more tired?
Sevilla has not lost to Real Sociedad since 2017. Moreover, the Andalusians won five out of seven matches, including both games in the previous season. It seems that now the hosts have a chance to interrupt the protracted streak of failures in head-to-head confrontations. But Sevilla will definitely not give up the victory so easily, so it is worth taking a closer look at the option with Over 2.0 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 goals scored
