La Real to get the better of Espanyol

Real Sociedad are the best bet to win at home to Espanyol on Sunday. The visitors finished last season on a run of three road defeats and could be heading for another loss at the Reale Arena.

Real Sociedad finished 12th last season, winning 13 games and losing 18, while Espanyol were 15th with 11 wins and the same number of defeats.

The hosts have an excellent record in this fixture, sustaining just one defeat in their last ten home games against Espanyol in the Primera Liga.

La Real drew 1-1 at Valencia last weekend in their first match under new manager Sergio Francisco, and will be looking to claim three points in his first home fixture.

Espanyol will be optimistic of pushing on after stunning Atletico Madrid 2-1 last week, but just 12 of their 42 home points came on their travels last season.

A 2-0 home win for Real Sociedad looks the best correct-score bet. At least one of the sides failed to score in 28 of Real Sociedad’s 38 league matches last season and Espanyol sustained three 2-0 losses in last season’s Primera Liga.
