Sevilla FC vs Real Sociedad Preview

These two sides remain big teams in La Liga and both did well the last season, however, they have underachieved this season even though they have been spectacular in some games.

Inconsistency has been the biggest issue for these sides and that has led to Sevilla sacking Vincenzo Montella who failed to win his last 9 games in charge following the shocking 2-1 win over Manchester United in the Champions League.

Sevilla have a slim hope of making Europe and they are set to finish the season below their local rivals Real Betis which would go down as one of their worst season for their fans.

Joaquín Caparrós has been tasked with helping them finish the season on a high on an interim basis and his players would want to start his reign with a win here.

Sevilla have scored at least 1.5 goals per home game this season, and ten of their 16 home matches this season has seen them net two goals or more.

Sociedad haven’t been at their best when they travel this season as they have lost 53% of their away games so far.

They have conceded less than only two teams in the league this season as their average goals conceded stands at 1.57 per game and 1.65 per away game.

They have a good record in this fixture recently, winning 4 of their last 6 meetings, and they have not been beaten in their last 2 visits to this ground.
