Real Sociedad vs Benfica – Preview, and Prediction
Real Sociedad vs Benfica – Real Sociedad will be looking for a better outcome after losing to Barcelona 0-1 in La Liga the previous time out.
In that match, Real Sociedad had 51% possession and no goals on 13 shots. Only one of Barcelona’s opponents’ 12 shots was on target. In the 90th minute, Ronald Araújo scored for Barcelona.
Their most recent performance serves as a clear example of how strong the Real Sociedad defense has been. Real Sociedad has played with extreme restraint; in their last six games, they have allowed four goals in total.
Benfica will enter this encounter fresh off a 0-2 Primeira Liga victory against Chaves in their previous game.
Benfica had 65% possession, and two of their 16 shots were on target. Benfica’s João Mário (80′) and Fredrik Aursnes (59′) scored goals. No goal came from Chaves’ seven shots.
Due to strong defense, Benfica has conceded three goals in their last six matches. They have five goals in the same timeframe. Though intriguing, the pattern may not repeat in this future game.
