Villarreal hosts Real Sociedad in round 21 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, January 30th at Estadio de la Ceramica (Villareal)
Villarreal showed good results even in the last season. But the Yellows did not save the position for Javier Calleja - it seems that the bosses agreed with Unai Emery in advance and simply did not make the signed contract public. Still, with a more experienced mentor, Villarreal looked more solid and stable and quite clearly demonstrated its claims for 4th place. The team rarely suffers defeats, but this may not be enough. In the last two rounds of LaLiga, Villarreal was the favorite of the pair but shared points with both opponents (2-2 with Granada at home and 0-0 on Huesca's pitch). Will a victory in the cup inspire the Yellow Submarine? Let’s recall that the Yellows beat Girona away thanks to Pino's relatively quick goal.

Real Sociedad could not compete for the Super Cup but lost to Barcelona only in the penalty shootout. However, the Basques also left the national cup this week. And how - the regulation time of the match with Betis ended 1-1, and both teams were left with ten men. And the White-Greens gained victory thanks to the double of Iglesias in the extra time. He established the final 3-1 score after a pass from Joaquin. A couple of days earlier, the veteran had pulled out a draw for Betis in San Sebastian, turning 1-2 to 2-2 in the last minutes. In general, Real Sociedad gained only one victory in the last 10 rounds of LaLiga (in the derby with Athletic). And we remember that Sociedad was the leader at the start of the championship. How long will the club's management believe that Imanol Alguasil will be able to find ways to rectify the situation?
In November, the teams exchanged goals at the Anoeta by the 33rd minute, and the match ended in a 1-1 draw. In general, Villarreal has not beaten Real Sociedad since January 2018. Before the draw, the Basques won four times in a row. Villarreal may not be at its peak, but Real Sociedad is clearly in more trouble. Let's believe in the hosts' favoritism and bet on their victory with a zero handicap.
Prediction for the match: Villarreal to win with 0.0 handicap
