Real Sociedad form and stats

There's been little loot from Real Sociedad's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 9 away games in the Liga Nacional. Real Sociedad only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 1 draw. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Real Sociedad have lost on their last two travels.

Sociedad won their last game, 3-2 versus Honduras Progreso played at home. Hooray; their first win in the league after nine rounds not winning. Late drama in the previous game, when Zerón scored the winning goal six minutes into stoppage time to defeat Honduras Progreso.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-3 defeat against Real España.

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.
