Real Sociedad vs Barcelona Predictions

• Real Sociedad have been beaten four times in six home league fixtures
• Barcelona have won seven matches in a row
• All of those games have contained at least three goals

Can Sociedad turn around poor home form?

Anoeta has traditionally been a fortress for Real Sociedad, but that has not been the case this year, as they have lost four of their half a dozen league fixtures there.

Worryingly, those defeats include a 2-1 reversal to Alaves and Rayo Vallecano, hardly La Liga powerhouses, while the White and Blues have also been beaten 2-0 by Osasuna and Real Madrid.

Indeed, there is a degree of pressure on manager Imanol Alguacil, as his side have managed just four victories in their last 14 attempts in all competitions.

Barca just keep on going

That will leave visitors Barcelona licking their lips, as the 27-time champions continue their quest for another crown.

They head into this match on a seven-match winning streak, while Hansi Flick’s side have managed 14 victories from 16 attempts this season.

All bar one of those successes have contained 3+ goals, helping to make Barca the top scorers in La Liga this year, plundering 40 goals in just a dozen outings.

I predict that Barcelona will win this game with 3+ goals scored, with 3-1 my correct score prediction.
