Friday night’s La Liga game sees Real Sociedad and Cadiz clash at the Reale Arena, which could be pivotal in both team’s objectives this season in the Spanish top-flight.
La Real back to winning way last time outImanol Aranguiz’s team ended a four-game winless run in all competitions last time out by winning 3-2 against struggling Granada. The victory moved the home team back into La Liga’s European spots.
It was a much-needed win, as it was only Real Sociedad’s second Liga win in seven outings.
Their recent matches in the Spanish top flight have at least not lacked entertainment, as the last four games have all produced over 2.5 goals.
Real Sociedad has struggled to win at the Reale Arena recently. They are winless in their last five home matches in La Liga and have also suffered back-to-back home defeats in the Spanish top-flight against Osasuna and Villarreal.
Their recent home games in La Liga have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their previous eight home matches.
Cadiz ended their winless run with a win over Atletico MadridThe Yellow Submarine recorded what could be a vital victory last time out as they defeated Atletico Madrid 2-0. The win ended a 23-game winless run for the visitors in La Liga. The victory also means that Cadiz is unbeaten in three Liga games.
When it comes to the fight for survival, the victory could well prove vital, as the 18th-place visitors are now just two points from safety.
Their recent outings in the Spanish top flight have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in seven of their previous eight outings.
What am I backing?Both teams go into this game after morale-boosting victories last time out. However, I believe this will be a relatively even and low-scoring encounter. With that in mind, the bet I am backing is under 2.5 goals scored.
