With the anxious opening game finished it’s time for the second Liga Nacional meeting of the season. UPNFM look forward to welcoming Real Sociedad in front of their home support.
It's no vacation for neither UPNFM nor Real Sociedad as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

The season before, UPNFM's league results were 7 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses, providing 5th spot in the Liga Nacional. From these 18 matches they scored 28 goals and let in 21. Appearing at their own stadium in the last season UPNFM delivered 4-4-1 (win-draw-lost) with 15 goals and 5 conceded.
The UPNFM fans enjoyed the previous game, watching their team host Real Sociedad and win 1-0.
Heartbreak before that as UPNFM lost 0-1 at Real Espana's place.The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how UPNFM have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 9 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 2 and lost 3.
Real Sociedad form and stats
Let's have a look at how Real Sociedad performed last season in the Liga Nacional: They landed a 7th position in the league table after playing out 4 victories, 4 draws and 10 defeats. In total they scored 20 and conceded 41 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 1 and lost 6 with 10/20 goals scored/conceded.
The attacking players of Real Sociedad have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 366 minutes.
Real Sociedad lost away at UPNFM (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.
The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-2 defeat against Marathon.Sociedad are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 3 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats. From a total of 8 matches.
Head 2 Head
