Match Stats

Real Sociedad finished sixth last season, missing out on the Champions League for the second consecutive year but securing a spot in the Europa League group stage. Their preparation for the new season was challenging, as several key players were absent due to their involvement in the European Championship and the Olympics. Additionally, Real Sociedad lost Robin Le Normand, who joined Atlético Madrid, and Mikel Merino, who is on the verge of signing with Arsenal.

In the first round, Real Sociedad suffered a surprising home defeat to Rayo Vallecano. Imanol Alguacil's team allowed their opponents to create too many chances and paid the price. However, they bounced back in the second round, securing a 1-0 away victory against newly promoted Espanyol.Alavés had an excellent last season, finishing as high as tenth. For a team that was playing in the Segunda División as recently as the 2022/23 season, this result is undoubtedly a success. This season, Alavés lost two key players who were on loan—forward Samu Omorodion and center-back Rafa Marín. However, the club managed to retain their head coach, Luis García.

In the first two rounds of La Liga, Alavés has only collected one point. They took the lead in the first half of their opening match against Celta, only to concede twice after the break. Last weekend, Luis García's team created very little against Real Betis but managed to secure a 0-0 draw.

Prediction:Real Sociedad -0.75
