Real Sociedad form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Real Sociedad, who have the fewest points (2) away in Liga Nacional, so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-5 (win-draw-lose).

Real Sociedad play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Real España (placed 6th). A loss against Vida was the result prior to that, in a home game.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Real Sociedad playing away, we found three games. Results were 0 away wins, 1 draw and 2 home wins.

The visitors have scored 4 goals from 7 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Real Sociedad have conceded 12 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
