Alavés hosting Real Sociedad often gets overlooked, but there’s some real bite in this one. The midfield battle between Alavés’ Antonio Blanco and Sociedad’s Mikel Merino will dictate pace and possession.
Real Sociedad has been up and down, losing 2-0 to Cadiz then beating Granada 3-2. Alavés, on the other hand, just got thumped 5-0 by Real Madrid after a decent run. Form favors Sociedad, despite their inconsistencies. My money is on Real Sociedad finding their rhythm.
Real Sociedad wins this one 2-1.
