Almeria-Real Sociedad betting preview

Almeria-Real Sociedad betting preview

This is going to be an exciting game, as both Almeria and Real Sociedad have their own reasons to go for a win. Almeria’s aim is plain and simple. If they don’t get any points from the match, they will go down further in the relegation waters – already they are neck deep.

 

Real Sociedad have no such concerns. They are in a spirited battle with Villarreal and Sevilla for the fifth spot. If possible, they would like to have a go at their fellow Basque outfit Athletic Bilbao for Champions League qualification. For all these to happen, they need to win this match.

 

Sociedad will be confident of getting all the three points, notwithstanding the losses against Sevilla and Rayo Vallecano earlier in the month. They made a comeback last week with a 1-0 home win over Valencia. An away win against Almeria would bring their campaign for a continental league berth back on track.

 

Almeria have been winless for the last five games – four losses and one draw. The team started 2014 well, with two victories in January. Since then, their form has been slumped. If this form continues, the team will be playing in the second division in the next season.

 

Two players in Almeria’s ranks are capable of engineering a reversal of fortunes: Rodri and Verza. If Suso too can find form, Almeria can cause an upset. For that to happen though, they will have to first stop Sociedad’s terrific pair of Antoine Griezmann and Carlos Vela. They have scored 25 goals between them in the season.

 

Almeria-Real Sociedad Prediction

Real Sociedad are the frontrunner for this match. If the threat of relegation spurs Almeria into action, they could snatch a draw.
