In the sixth round of La Liga, Valladolid will host Real Sociedad. The match is scheduled for Saturday, September 21, and will kick off at 14:00 Central European Time. Dailysports experts have prepared a forecast for this encounter.
Valladolid
Last season, the team finished second in the Segunda División, earning promotion to the top flight. However, their current situation is far from ideal. Valladolid's season has begun poorly. In the first game, they managed a narrow 1-0 win over Espanyol, but have since failed to secure another victory. In the following four matches, they suffered three defeats and recorded one draw, with a goal difference of 1:13. Valladolid now sits in 17th place in La Liga after five rounds.
Real Sociedad
The Basques are also struggling to find consistency. Last season, they finished sixth in the table, but their start to the new campaign can only be described as disappointing. In six matches, Sociedad has claimed just one win, a 1-0 triumph over Espanyol, and has not secured any further victories.
They have also drawn once and lost four times. Currently, they are just one place above Valladolid in the standings. These results must be considered in light of Sociedad's loss of their key central defender, who departed for Atlético Madrid this summer. Clearly, the team needs time to regroup.
Match Facts
- Both Valladolid and Real Sociedad have gone four matches without a win.
- Valladolid has not lost at home to Real Sociedad in their last six meetings.
Probable Lineups
- Valladolid: Hein; L. Pérez, Cömert, Özkacar, Rosa, N'Diaye; K. Pérez, Meseguer, Amallah; Latasa, Moro.
- Real Sociedad: Remiro; Elustondo, Zubeldia, Aguerd, Muñoz; S. Gómez, Benat, Zubimendi, Sučić, Kubo; Oyarzabal.
Head-to-Head
- The last meeting between these two teams ended in a 1-0 victory for Valladolid.
Prediction
Both teams have started the season poorly. It’s evident that Valladolid and Sociedad will aim to rectify their situations in this match, given their low positions in the standings. Therefore, I will wager that both teams will find the net. The odds for this outcome stand at 2.1.
