With the likes of Valencia and Athletic Bilbao blowing hot on their tails, the pressure on Real Sociedad in recent weeks has been unbearable. Having thrown their shot at a Champions League place finish under the bus, the Royal will turn their attentions to finishing within the top-seven, at least.

Looking to remain within continental reckoning, Real Sociedad needed to turn their spiraling trajectory curve rocketing with a win against tough customers Levante on the last matchday. Given how horrific they had been heading into the game, there were uncertainties about their chances against this foe.

Matched toe-to-toe by the Frogs, the outcome of the match could hardly be predicted as the clock wound down. An early Isak goal was canceled out by Levante’s Morales just four minutes later. Ultimately, both sides were forced home with a single point in the bag.

Treating La Liga fans to a great watch under the floodlights of the Nuevos Los Carmenes, Granada gave fellow top-seven hopefuls Valencia a run for their money. Billed as a potential high-scoring clash, both sides didn’t disappoint with a flurry of goals of note in the county of Andalusia.

A game littered with lots of goal-mouth action, there was to be no difference between these sides at fulltime with both ends happy to head home with a point under the belt. Four different goal-scorers getting on the scoresheet, a high-scoring 2-2 draw was posted on the board.

This game could define Real Sociedad’s season. They will head into this match knowing fully well that victory could see them leapfrog Getafe into sixth and a loss could put their European qualification hopes on the line.

Having struggled severely since the league restart, remaining winless in their first five games, the Royal seem to have finally found their footing. Perhaps a semi-resurgence, Imanol Aguacil’s men are unbeaten in each of their last two fixtures in the league.

Meanwhile, Granada have been blowing hot and cold, managing a measly three wins from their preceding 10 clashes across all competitions. They have 8 wins from their preceding 17 away fixtures, maintaining a five-game unbeaten run, with a total of three draws in that time.

Real Sociedad vs Granada Predictions

Granada’s struggles on the road are well-documented. In fact, they have become affiliated with draws over the last couple of weeks. Meanwhile, Sociedad have done very little to strengthen their claim as a top La Liga side to be reckoned with.

The Royal have been largely inconsistently lately and cannot be trusted to deliver the win. Taking these into context, both sides are likely to share the spoils here. Fancy a low-scoring draw between these two sides who are at the end of their tethers.
