Enjoying a blistering start to the league campaign, Real Sociedad have quickly risen to the top of the standings with an impressive 23 points from 10 games. With Atletico Madrid breathing heavy down their necks, La Real cannot allow for any slip-ups.

They will need something out of the top-drawer to ensure Villarreal are effectively dispatched this weekend. A very exciting game on the cards, prepare to be mind-blown by these two strong sides come kickoff in the Basque Country.

Real Sociedad vs Villarreal Team News

Sociedad’s brilliant start to this new season is reminiscent of their previous campaign, where they remained on top in the early stages. However, a lack of consistency ultimately saw them give up top-spot, surrendering the position to eventual champions Real Madrid.

They may have fallen off the pace in the running for La Liga success, but Sociedad remained in contention for a top-four finish. However, a horrendous run of form post-lockdown saw Alguacil’s men drop down the ladder to settle for Europa League football.

Now, the Royal will be hoping this campaign doesn’t play out like the last one, where they endured a dip-in-form. Imanol Alguacil must keep his players in check to prevent them from getting ahead of themselves, as there is still a lot of games left to play.

Last time out, Real Sociedad were made to bend over backwards to secure victory over newly-promoted Cadiz. Despite dominating proceedings all through the game, the Royal struggled to make in-roads as the opposition kept things tidy in defense.

Ultimately, Isak’s 66^th-minute strike broke the deadlock, helping his side to a vital win. Now, they must build on this victory with another favorable result in this upcoming game against high-flying Villarreal. Just like this weekend’s foe, Villarreal are currently surpassing pre-season expectations.

Garnering 19 points from their opening 10 fixtures, the Yellow Submarine occupy second-place on the log, and are only four points shy of the summit. Having secured Europa League football last term, Villarreal are hoping to do one better this time around, perhaps sealing a top-four spot.

So far, they are on the right path to realizing this dream. Leaving everything on the pitch last weekend, Emery’s men toiled really hard to secure a one-all draw against Real Madrid, thanks to a Gerard Moreno second-half spot-kick. Another win here, could see them leapfrog Atletico Madrid into second-place.

Injured or Suspended Players

Real Sociedad: Alex Sola, Luca Sangalli, Asier Illarramendi, Andoni Gorosabel, David Silva and Jon Guridi.

Real Sociedad vs Villarreal Predictions

This fixture has all the makings of an entertaining, cracking contest, and we are finding it pretty difficult to separate these two sides. As they were caught up in Europa League action in midweek, neither side would have ample time to prepare for this match.

A very close one to call, we expect this to be a low-scoring encounter as both sides look to avoid defeat. Expect no more than two goals between these sides come fulltime. (Under 2.5)
