Real Sociedad vs Betis Prediction & Betting Tips (1 December)

On alternating current since the start of this La Liga campaign, Real Sociedad was able to beat FC Barcelona before the break by depriving the Catalans of the slightest shot on target 1-0, but it did not manage to reproduce this performance last weekend in the derby against neighbor Athletic Bilbao, losing 1-0 in San Mamés. Only 10th in the ranking, the residents of Anoeta need to find some bite at home, since they have won only one of their last 4 receptions, for two defeats against Osasuna in the championship 0-2 and Anderlecht in the Europa League 1-2. This week, the men of Alguacil received the splendid formation of Ajax Amsterdam in the Europe League to follow. Traveling to Mestalla last weekend, for the first Valencia match since the floods, Bétis could do nothing to cope with the extra soul which occupied the players of the Ché club.

Finally, in an ultra-dynamic meeting, the Sevillians lost quite heavily 4-2. A significant defeat, because the Andalusians had not lost for 7 matches in all competitions for a record of 4 wins and 3 draws. Like Sociedad, the Verdiblancos played in the European Cup on Thursday evening, in the Conference League to be precise, on the pitch of the Czechs from Mlada Boleslav to follow.

Both long-term injured, former Rennais Hamari Traoré and young Russian midfielder Zakharyan will be unavailable for this meeting. Icelandic international Oskarsson (2 goals in La Liga) is also physically hampered and is not sure he will be operational for this match. We will expect a lot from the offensive trident composed of the Japanese international Kubo (3 goals in the league), the Spanish international Oyarzabal (2 goals, 1 goal in La Liga), and the crack Ander Barrenetxea. The infirmary is crowded in Andalusia with the confirmed absences of Isco, William Carvalho, Cardoso, full-back Hector Bellerin, former West Ham resident Fornals, and Marc Roca.

A priori, the young Frenchman Nobel Mendy could be back in the squad for this trip to Anoeta. Used off the bench in Valencia following his late return from the international break with the Albiceleste, Lo Celso (5 goals, 1 assist in 8 league appearances) could start in the eleven alongside Ez Abde and Aitor Ruibal.
