Osasuna vs Real Sociedad predictions, H2H and match preview for this Sunday’s game in La Liga. Read on for analysis and predicted line-ups ahead of this clash in Pamplona.
Osasuna vs Real Sociedad Preview
This Sunday’s Basque Derby has all the makings of a really good contest between two sides who can be really content with their efforts so far this season. Osasuna came up as Segunda Division champions and have looked every bit at home at this level while Real Sociedad have really stepped up a gear on last season thanks to some exciting new arrivals.
Osasuna’s club record unbeaten home league run may have gone but their defeat to Athletic remains their only at home this season in La Liga and they have also already hosted the likes of Barcelona, Valencia and Sevilla. They’re quite a settled side with a clear identity which involves plenty of attacking down the flanks with their full-backs particularly impressive.
La Real ought to be well aware of what to expect from their local rivals but there’s no guarantee that they will be able to find an effective solution. Sociedad played really well again last weekend against Barcelona and fired in 8 goals in the Copa del Rey in midweek with Adnan Januzaj netting a hat-trick. However for all their impressive play, they have been struggling to put league wins on the board of late with just 2 in their last 7 in La Liga which has just seen them fall back on the pacesetters and out of the top four.
Imanol’s men are likely to come here targeting the win which should help an open game develop but they will know they will be in for a real test against this Osasuna side. Victory for the hosts would see them move onto 26 points, just 2 fewer than Sociedad have picked up so far this term.
Osasuna vs Real Sociedad Predictions
Score Prediction: 2-2 Draw
Real Sociedad have considerably more attacking weapons at their disposal however this Osasuna side has already gone toe to toe with several sides that are on paper far superior to them. An entertaining game looks likely with Sociedad likely to boss the possession but Osasuna are capable of creating chances down the flanks. We’re going for a score draw.
