Valencia vs Real Sociedad match preview for the La Liga fixture, written by experienced sports betting expert.
Valencia
Real SociedadSaturday’s La Liga action features an exciting clash between Valencia and Real Sociedad. ‘The Oranges’ were impressive last season, finishing on the fourth place and defeating Barcelona at the final of Copa Del Rey. Valencia’s coach Marcelino did an excellent summer business and strengthened his squad even more.
Real Sociedad finished last season on the ninth place, three points behind Europa League qualification. During the summer, the Basque side improved in the attack, by signing Portu and Alexander Isaak. However, in the pre-season friendlies, Real Sociedad was not that convincing and won just three of a total eight games.
In the past couple of years, the matches between Valencia and Real Sociedad are exciting. Valencia won three of the last four games, although they lost in the previous four before them. ‘The Oranges’ are a better team on paper, and having in mind their excellent form in the spring, and I expect them to score at least twice against Real Sociedad. The Basque side concedes at least two goals in their most recent four away games in La Liga.
My Valencia vs Real Sociedad predictions are Valencia Over 1.5 Goals at odds around 1.83. I will also back Valencia 2-1 Correct Score at odds around 8.50. Bet Heaven recommends placing this bet at Bet365.
