Real Sociedad will be looking to continue their charge for a European position in the league this weekend when they play host to Rayo Vallecano. The visitors will be looking for a boost in form after losing three of their last four.
The La Liga action continues this weekend, as Real Sociedad bid to close the gap on the Champions League spots. Sociedad come into the weekend after ending their long winless sequence in the competition, and a second straight victory on Saturday could see them put pressure on the sides above them in the league standings.
However, it is worth mentioning that Sociedad have played a game more than the majority of the sides above them in the standings. But, a win last weekend at least marked a welcome return to form. Sociedad landed maximum points on the road, as they picked up a 1-0 success at Celta Vigo. Their winning effort was netted inside the opening eleven minutes, with Brais Mendez scoring the goal.
Rayo Vallecano will be the visitors to Sociedad this weekend, as they look to improve their recent form. The Spanish side have suffered defeats in three of their last four matches, and they have picked up just a single victory from their last five matches in La Liga. But, a return to winning ways this weekend could move them into the top half of the standings.
Their most recent defeat was suffered at home against Las Palmas. Vallecano managed just three shots on target in that defeat, and they will need to show much more attacking threat if they are to pick up maximum points this weekend.
Sociedad have gone ten matches without defeat against Vallecano in the league. However, the previous meeting between the sides this term saw the points shared following a 2-2 draw. Sociedad have picked up two wins from their last three matches against their rivals, which includes a 2-1 success in this exact fixture last season.
Sociedad have an impressive recent record in this fixture, and that could be the best angle worth following this weekend. Therefore, we could see the home side picking up a second straight success to enhance their chances of landing a Champions League spot in La Liga this term.
