Real Sociedad – Statistics & Current Form

So far, Real Sociedad are playing a strong year in 2019. Although the White-Blue have only played three competitive games since New Year’s Eve, the Basques remained undefeated in these matches. Closely connected with the positive trend is certainly the personality Imanol Alguacil, who took over the office in San Sebastian shortly after the Christmas holidays and replaced his largely hapless predecessor Asier Garitano. His debut celebrated the 47-year-old, who previously coached the B-team, just the remarkable 2-0 away win at Real Madrid. This was followed by the 0-0 draw in the Copa del Rey at Betis Sevilla and a spectacular 3-2 home win over Espanyol Barcelona last weekend. The two-in-a-row saw Real Sociedad rise to eighth in the championship, just three points behind the intended international ranks. The uptrend should of course continue on Thursday evening and be made perfect by a home win against Betis Sevilla advancing into the quarter-finals.

An argument that does not necessarily speak for the hosts, is the fact that the former Champions League participants in the current season in front of home scenery does not really get going. From nine games in the Estadio Anoeta San Sebastian took only nine points (two wins, three draws, four bankruptcies) and scored as few goals. However, this meager yield in front of their own fans should not fool the fact that the white-blue under the new coach with much more confidence and act alone a third of the total home goals last Sunday against Espanyol Barcelona marked. Defensive qualities will also be needed in the round of 16 in the second leg, as an early backlog would be deadly due to the away goals rule applied. In this respect, it can be assumed that the homeowners will not immediately take full risk, but primarily put the defense work in the foreground. Consequently, between Real Sociedad and Betis Sevilla offers a tip to a goal poor first half. The staffing situation should not make things any easier, because with Navas, Le Normand, Rodrigues, Gorosabel, Zurutuza, Pardo, Merquelanz and Ramirez are several professionals in sick leave.

Real Sociedad vs Betis Sevilla Betting TipsBetis Sevilla – Statistics & Current Form

The 2-1 home defeat by Betis Sevilla last Saturday against reigning Champions League winner Real Madrid was somehow symbolic of the recent appearances of “Beticos” in recent weeks. The Green-Whites invest a lot, but rarely reward themselves for the effort involved. Already in the 0-0 before against Real Sociedad, the 1: 2 in Huesca or the 1-1 home against SD Eibar two days before Christmas Eve the Europa League sixteenth finalist was by no means weaker than the opponent, but went too sloppy with their own scoring chances , so that finally many points were given away unnecessarily. In other words, with a slightly better efficiency, the Andalusians might not be in seventh place with 26 points, but with three to four more, they would have even made direct connections with the top group. Probably this is also the reason why in the second round play-off of the Copa del Rey between Real Sociedad and Betis Sevilla the guests are given better chances to move into the next round according to the odds.

If we split the table of the La Liga in the results after halftime one and halftime two, it becomes clear that the green-whites are real late starters. After 19 matchdays, the team of coach Quique Setien has a goal difference of 6: 6 in each of the first 45 minutes. In the second half, Betis Sevilla scored almost three times as many goals (16), but also conceded almost three times as many goals (17). These extremely interesting stats, coupled with the fact that in seven of Andalusia’s last ten league matches, saw two more goals scored in halftime, leads us to believe that between Real Sociedad and Betis Sevilla is the tip for good odds on a bigger scoreline second passage should make sense. Also important: In the fourth Copa del Rey round, it also took until the second half of the second leg before the favorites from Sevilla against the second division Racing Santander finally broke the knot and had to grab in those 45 minutes of the opposing keeper more often behind than in the previous 135th Sidnei and Junior Firpo remain the only two players who have to pass due to injury. Otherwise, Coach Setien can almost draw on the full.

Expected formation of Betis Sevilla:
Robles – Feddal, Bartra, Mandi – Barragan, Lo Celso, J. Garcia, Boudebouz – Joaquin, Tello – Sergio Leon
