Elche vs Real Sociedad -Last Sunday at home Reale Arena against a motivated Barcelona team, Real Sociedad struggled to make much of an impact (formerly known as Anoeta).
After Xavi made adjustments and Ansu Fati was added to the game, Blaugrana became especially dominant in the second half.
The Basques conceded three goals in the second half without providing a sufficient response, leaving them with a win and a loss after two rounds of La Liga play.
On Saturday afternoon, Imanol Alguacil’s team will go to Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero to play Elche in the third round of the league.
Even though Elche only earned one point from their first two games of the season, Sociedad will face some challenges on this trip.
Only six of Elche’s 19 home games during the previous La Liga season were losses. They have a 24-21 goal differential in the process, making them difficult to beat in their own territory.
Especially when it comes to their attacking efforts, head coach Francisco can’t be overjoyed with the form his team has displayed so far this season.
In the first two rounds, Elche only scored once, and in Monday’s 1-1 home tie with recently promoted Almeria, they only managed three shots on goal.
Elche vs Real Sociedad – Betting Analysis
The optimal wager in this situation appears to be the Under 2.5 goals FT. In the first two games, Elche did not contribute much in the final third, and Sociedad only managed to score once each against Cadiz and Barcelona.
Under 2.5 goals FT is available at 1.66 odds, while Real Sociedad to maintain a clean sheet is a respectable alternative at 2.25 odds.
Real Sociedad defeated Elche in both home and away games during the previous La Liga season; Sociedad will enter this match with six victories in its last seven encounters with Elche.
