Real Sociedad 2-1

Reason for tip

Real Sociedad have won three of their last five away La Liga games and may just edge this contest due to their more efficient finishing. Imanol’s team have scored multiple goals in their last three away league games but have also conceded in each. Alaves, meanwhile, are regular scorers at home but rarely get more than one, so a 2-1 away win seems to suit the circumstances.

Real Sociedad are over their blip

Alaves will scrap for everything they can get when Europe-chasing Real Sociedad arrive at Estadio de Mendizorroza for another Basque derby.

Babazorros lie in 13th place with a 10-point cushion to the relegation zone, but have won only one of their last seven league games. That was a scrappy 1-0 victory over fellow relegation candidates Rayo Vallecano and they will come up against a much higher quality of opponent on Sunday.

Real Sociedad appear to have navigated beyond a month-long blip that saw them eliminated from the Copa del Rey, Champions League and top-four contention. Imanol Alguacil’s side have returned back-to-back wins against bottom three clubs to steady the ship and will now focus on maintaining the gap to seventh-placed Real Betis.

Alaves have a poor Basque derby record

A draw in this game would not be a disaster for them, but they should be targeting a win given Alaves’ recent results in Basque derbies. Luis Garcia Plaza’s team have taken only one point from five games against clubs from their region and that when they let Real Sociedad off the hook in the reverse fixture.

Imanol’s team grabbed a stoppage-time equaliser at Reale Arena, despite playing for around an hour with 10 men.

Both teams should score again in this fixture and that bet is preferred over backing an away victory, although both could prove to be winners. Both teams have scored in three of Alaves’ last four home games and Real Sociedad’s last three road games with the visitors appearing to open up more in recent weeks.
