For Espanyol, goals were scored by Leandro Cabrera (63′ Own Goal), Sergi Darder (74′), and Brian Oliván (87′). The Real Sociedad backline has worked extremely hard, as seen by their most recent results.
Real Sociedad haven’t been too generous to the opposition; in their last six games, they’ve only allowed four goals to find the back of the net.
Real Sociedad entered this matchup having won their previous 5 games against Celta Vigo without losing a league draw.
Celta Vigo will be looking to rebound after a disappointing performance in their most recent La Liga contest against Atlético Madrid. Celta Vigo had 47% of the possession in that game and 3 of their 14 shots on goal were successful.
Atlético Madrid, their adversaries, had 10 shots on goal with 2 of them being successful. Atlético Madrid’s goal came from Memphis Depay (89′).
A relatively small number of goals have been scored between Celta Vigo and the opposition in 5 of their last 6 games. In that stretch, just 2.17 goals were scored on average per game overall, with 1.17 of the goals coming from Os Celestes.
But there’s no guarantee that pattern will continue in this game. For the previous two league games, Celta Vigo had not defeated Real Sociedad when playing away from home.
