The last time these two teams faced off against each other, Real Sociedad came away as 0-1 winners. No doubt they are planning a similar outcome this coming Wednesday.

In their last three games, Real Sociedad lost 0-2 against Atletico Madrid, got defeated 1-2 by Rayo Vallecano before winning 0-1 against Espanyol. Real Sociedad claimed a modest two wins in their past six home matches in the LaLiga. They also drew one and lost three, scored six goals and conceded seven.

Real Sociedad enter the season as candidates for a top three finish, but more than a third place would in the end would be a rather big surprise.

Deportivo Alaves Form

In their last three matches, Deportivo Alaves drew 1-1 with Las Palmas, lost 2-1 against Celta Vigo, and drew 0-0 with Real Betis. Deportivo Alaves managed to win just once in their past six away games in the LaLiga. On top of winning once they also drew one as well as losing four, while scoring 12 time and letting in three.

While a title challenge may be a bit of a stretch, Real Sociedad look a solid bet for a top three finish at the end of the season.

Real Sociedad find it just as tough as Deportivo Alaves to get on the scoreboard these days, and a match short on goal looks highly likely, when they clash at Reale Arena.
