Following on from being beaten in their last game against Rayo Vallecano in La Liga action, Real Sociedad and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.

It is worth noting that Real Sociedad have made hard work of scoring goals over their last 6 clashes, recording the disappointing return of just 4. In those matches, Txuri-urdin have also seen the overall goal tally of their opponents equal 9. It will be interesting to find out if that trend can be continued on in this game.
Coming into this meeting, Real Sociedad are without an away win for the past 8 league matches. Their travelling support will be needed here, for sure.

ℹ️ Team News: Celta Vigo
The Celta Vigo manager Claudio Giráldez will be thankful to have no fitness worries to speak of coming into this game owing to a completely injury-free squad to choose from.
We are thinking that Os Celestes could employ a 3-4-3 formation in the match and select Ionut Andrei Radu, Javi Rodriguez, Carl Starfelt, Marcos Alonso, Sergio Carreira, Hugo Sotelo, Ilaix Moriba, Oscar Mingueza, Iago Aspas, Borja Iglesias and Bryan Zaragoza.
ℹ️ Team News: Real Sociedad
With a completely healthy group to choose from, the Real Sociedad manager Sergio Francisco has no fitness worries whatsoever before this clash.
It’s our belief that Txuri-urdin could decide to begin the game with a 4-1-4-1 lineup using Alex Remiro, Jon Aramburu, Igor Zubeldia, Duje Caleta-Car, Sergio Gomez, Jon Gorrotxategi, Goncalo Guedes, Brais Mendez, Carlos Soler, Ander Barrenetxea and Mikel Oyarzabal.
⚡ Prediction
We believe that Real Sociedad might have a difficult job to break down this Celta Vigo side who we think might well score at least once to gain the upper hand.
We’re therefore seeing a good battle with a 1-0 winning score for Celta Vigo after 90 minutes.
Should be a close one.
