Real Sociedad Preview – Can Real Sociedad bounce back?
Real Sociedad were handed a heavy 4-2 defeat away from home at Barcelona in last weekend’s opening match of this new La Liga season but the hosts will be holding home advantage this Sunday afternoon when they entertain Rayo Vallecano at their Reale Arena.
The hosts have won five of their last eight matches though overall in the Spanish top flight and although they’ve also lost three games within this period, it’s worth noting that all three losses were incurred away from home.
Real Sociedad have lost just two of their last 11 games at home and they’ve also won their last three on the trot with wins against Celta Vigo, Elche and Real Valladolid.
Rayo Vallecano Preview – Can Rayo Vallecano survive?
Newly promoted Rayo Vallecano made a losing start to their return to La Liga last weekend when they suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat away from home at Sevilla and this upcoming trip to face Real Sociedad also looks to be a tricky outing for the visitors.
In their last appearance in the Spanish top flight, Rayo Vallecano managed to pick up just two wins from their final 17 matches of that disastrous campaign which resulted in relegation.
In addition, Rayo Vallecano have lost their last three away matches on the trot in all competitions and nine of their last 10 on the road in La Liga.
