Our predictions for Osasuna vs Real Sociedad
Match Prediction: Osasuna 1-2 Real Sociedad.
Osasuna's recent form suggests a team struggling to find the net, with only one win in their last five games. Their defensive solidity, evident in the draw against Oviedo, could be crucial against Real Sociedad. Osasuna might look to exploit counter-attacks, leveraging the pace of Barja and the experience of Garcia up front. However, their inability to score consistently could hinder their chances of securing a positive result.
Real Sociedad, on the other hand, have shown more consistency, with two wins and two draws in their recent outings. Their ability to score, as seen in the victories over Athletic Club and Sevilla, indicates a potent attack that could trouble Osasuna's defence. Real Sociedad's midfield control, led by Gorrotxategi, might dictate the tempo of the game, potentially leading to a closely contested match. Given these dynamics, Real Sociedad might edge out a narrow victory.
