Comments and predictions for Real Betis vs Real Sociedad: The tosser and the catcher

Latest Real Betis vs Real Sociedad team information

Real Betis will continue to be without Isco due to injury. In addition, Nobel Mendy, Marc Bartra, Ricardo Rodriguez and Aitor Ruibal are all uncertain to return.

Giovani Lo Celso is likely to start at No. 10, while Antony – a new signing returning on a long-term contract from Manchester United – will continue to be given opportunities on the right wing. Pablo Fornals will still play in midfield, while Cucho Hernandez (1 goal in La Liga this season) will be the leading striker.

For Real Sociedad, Yangel Herrera is definitely absent due to a muscle injury. Orri Oskarsson, Luka Sucic and Brais Mendez need to undergo fitness tests before the match.

Coach Sergio Francisco is unlikely to make too many changes from the match against Real Madrid, but Takefusa Kubo could return to the starting lineup on the right wing. Up front, Mikel Oyarzabal continues to be the main striker as he is aiming to become the top 2 scorers in the history of the confrontation between the two teams.

Latest football commentary Real Betis vs Real Sociedad

Real Betis have played 5 matches in La Liga this season and have had an acceptable start, with 1 win, 3 draws and 1 loss, bringing home 6 points and standing in 10th place.

Manuel Pellegrini's side opened the season with a 1-1 draw against Elche, then beat Alaves 1-0 at home. However, they were held to a draw by Celta Vigo and then lost to Athletic Bilbao before the September break.

Returning from the international break, Betis drew 2-2 with Levante last weekend, in which they had to come back from 2 goals down.

Betis begin their Europa League campaign against Nottingham Forest next week, so a positive result against Real Sociedad would be an important springboard. Last season, Betis won 3-0 in the same game, but they have won just one of their last five meetings with the Basques.

On the other side, Real Sociedad just lost 1-2 at Bernabeu against Real Madrid, extending their streak of two consecutive defeats in La Liga and causing them to fall to 17th place on the rankings.

“La Real” started the season with a 1-1 draw against Valencia and a 2-2 draw against Espanyol, but then fell to Real Oviedo and Real Madrid respectively.

Last season, Sociedad finished 11th – their lowest finish since 2017/18. Their early performances this season suggest they are facing another difficult campaign.

The two teams have met 118 times in all competitions. Sociedad have the upper hand with 46 wins, Betis 41, and 31 draws. Striker Mikel Oyarzabal has scored 6 goals against Betis in his career and continues to be the visitors' biggest hope in the upcoming match.
