Here's our Celta vs Real Sociedad Prediction analysis: League leaders Real Sociedad face a stern test of their credentials, as they travel to the Estadio de Balaidos to take on Celta Vigo in one of the matches billed to go down in La Liga this weekend.  Real Sociedad have enjoyed a dream start to La Liga this season, and they currently sit top of the standings, ahead of the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona. And having narrowly secured Europa League qualification last season, they’ll be looking to do one better and push for Champions League football this term.

Celta Vigo, in stark contrast to the visiting side haven’t enjoyed the best of starts to the season, and, seven games in, they find themselves occupying the seventeenth position on the standings, just one point above the relegation zone. The Sky Blues have flirted with relegation for the past couple of seasons, and it remains to be seen whether this is the one in which they finally go down.

Celta Vigo vs Real Sociedad Team News

Celta Vigo’s poor start to the season continued, as they were held to a 1-1 draw by fellow strugglers, Levante, in their last league outing. 
Both goals in the game came in an action-packed four minutes at the start of the second half. The game witnessed a series of chances created by both sides, but neither were able to convert, to secure the much needed three points. 

That result ensured Celta’s poor run of form continued, with The Celts now winless in their last five league outings – losing three and drawing two in that run. Celta’s bad start to the season has been marked by their form while playing at home. 

But it is also worth noting that they have faced three of La Liga’s strongest sides – Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, and Valencia – in those fixtures, beating Valencia in an impressive result at the start of the season.

Real Sociedad, on the other hand, recorded an emphatic 4-1 victory over La Liga newcomers, Huesca, in their last league outing. 

Forward Mikel Oyarzabal netted a brace to take his league tally to the season for four, and further goals from Alexander Isak and Portu ensured it’d be a comfortable result for Imanol Alguacil’s men as they consolidated their position at the top of the table.

As stated earlier, Real Sociedad are currently placed first on La Liga, with fourteen points from their opening seven fixtures. Additionally, La Real have won four of their last five league matches, with two of those wins coming while playing away from home.

Celta vs Real Sociedad Predictions

Real Sociedad are in much stronger form than Celta at the moment, and it’d be a no-brainer to tip them for the win. However, Celta, on their day, are capable of causing any side problems, hence why opting for a straight Real win might not be the best choice.

Chip in the fact that Celta are playing at home, and are desperate for results, and we have a tight encounter on our hands. The logical option would be to go for either a Sociedad win or draw in this encounter.
