Real Sociedad Espanyol betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Given what we discussed earlier, the possibility of a good result for Real Sociedad is very high. The home club should push Espanyol into their midfield, dominating possession and creating the best chances for goals. It should be noted that the home team ambition to return to the triumphs in La Liga. On the other hand, the visitors are experiencing enormous difficulties in this competition and for this reason it is expected that they will choose to attack through quick transitions. That said, risking in favor of Real Sociedad on this round is a good option.
