Struggling Deportivo Alavés need to pull off an upset when they host hard-driving Real Sociedad in the next league game. It’s 18th vs 6th and the home fans will have low confidence.
- Deportivo Alavés have conceded at least twice as many corners as they have won at home.
- Real Sociedad have the fewest scored goals in the first half (3) in La Liga
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
