Real Sociedad will be looking to bounce back from a recent defeat when they return to La Liga action on Sunday. However, Getafe could be confident coming into this showdown after winning two of their last three.
La Liga Preview
The action in La Liga gets underway on Sunday in Sociedad, as the hosts will be looking to kick start their campaign. The hosts were among the leading contenders to compete for a Champions League spot this term, but they have won just once across their opening five matches this term. However, they have suffered just a single defeat in the Spanish top flight.
Sociedad’s first defeat of the season was suffered last weekend, as they were edged out by Real Madrid. The visitors opened the scoring in that fixture, but Madrid were able to turn the game on its head in the second period, as they netted twice in the first 15 minutes of the second half. But, Sociedad would have taken huge confidence from their performance at the Bernabeu.
Getafe should come into this match in good confidence, as they sit ninth in the La Liga standings after winning two of their opening five matches this term. The Spanish side comes into this fixture after picking up victory in their most recent match, and they will be chasing a second straight win on Sunday.
They battled well in their most recent fixture against Osasuna, as they landed maximum points following the winning goal in the 86th minute. The winner in that fixture was netted by Nemanja Maksimovic. Other efforts in the success were netted by Stefan Mitrovic and Jose Angel Carmona.
Real Sociedad vs Getafe Head to Head
Sociedad won this exact fixture last season by a 2-0 scoreline. However, the first meeting between the sides last term was won 2-1 by Getafe. Interestingly, two of the previous four encounters have ended in draws. But, Sociedad have lost just once in the previous six matches.
Real Sociedad vs Getafe Prediction
It hasn’t been the most straightforward start to the new season for Sociedad. However, they looked to be getting back to their best against Real Madrid last weekend. Therefore, it could be worth siding with the hosts picking up maximum points in front of their home fans this weekend.
