Real SociedadNo absentees
Valencia‘s dismal start to the La Liga campaign continues to raise eyebrows, with just two goals in six games leaving them down in 18th, and they host an inconsistent Real Sociedad at Mestalla on Sunday. The visitors have their own defensive issues, setting up a meeting between two sides desperate for a result.
Anthony Eadson’s Valencia vs Real Sociedad predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson sides with the visitors at Mestalla.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Real Sociedad draw no bet | 10/11 (BetMGM) | Valencia have been dreadful in front of goal, scoring just twice in six games and offering next to nothing at Mestalla, where they have lost to Betis and been thrashed by Barcelona. Real Sociedad are far from perfect but carry a greater attacking threat and have already won on the road at Elche. Backing the visitors with the stake returned should the game end level looks the smart play here. At 10/11 with BetMGM, Real Sociedad on the draw no bet makes plenty of appeal. |
| Luka Sucic to score anytime | 4/1 (Paddy Power) | Luka Sucic has been Real Sociedad’s most consistent attacking threat, netting twice from midfield and getting into dangerous areas regularly. Valencia have looked vulnerable at the back and short of belief, and the visitors should fashion the better openings at Mestalla. Sucic strikes the ball cleanly and arrives late in the box, exactly the kind of runner a fragile home side can struggle to pick up. At 4/1 with Paddy Power, the midfielder to get on the scoresheet offers genuine value. |

How Valencia go into the game
Valencia are enduring a miserable start, sitting 18th with just two goals scored in six games and only a 1-0 win at Alaves to show for their efforts. Mestalla has been grim viewing, with a goalless draw against Celta, a 1-0 loss to Betis and a 5-0 hammering by Barcelona.
Bereft of goals and low on confidence, the hosts badly need a spark in front of their own fans.
How Real Sociedad go into the game
Real Sociedad have blown hot and cold, following a 3-0 home defeat to Atletico with earlier wins over Espanyol and at Elche. Luka Sucic has been their most reliable attacking outlet with two goals from midfield.
Capable going forward but leaky at the back, the visitors will fancy their chances against a toothless Valencia.
