Real Madrid are yet to fully hit their stride following Zidane’s return to the club and will be looking for results to pick up soon.

Neither Jovic nor Hazard have quite reached their best form, while Gareth Bale continues to struggle with injuries.

For Real Sociedad, the performances of youngsters Martin Odegaard and Mikel Oyarzabal have been really encouraging and look to have added a new dimension to their attack.

They have also been solid in defense, with only four teams have conceded fewer goals.

However, there have been signs of life within Madrid’s attack in recent games with a 5-0, 6-0 and 4-0 win in the last four games in all competitions.

On balance, Madrid just has the edge and are highly probable to win 3-1. Make sure to bet on Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad with 22Bet!
