Athletic vs Real Sociedad preview

Athletic (13th, 9 pts) host Real Sociedad (5th, 16 pts) in the La Liga. Athletic have taken 6 points from their last 5 games (LDDDW) and Real Sociedad 12 points from 5 (WWWLW), so Real Sociedad arrive in clearly better form. Real Sociedad: over 1.5 goals in each of their last 5 league games.

Our model favours Athletic at 44% to Real Sociedad's 30%. Expected goals are 1.48 for Athletic and 1.17 for Real Sociedad, and the most likely score is 1-1 (13%).
