At this point, with Barcelona’s current performances, I don't think they will have much difficulty winning a match like this. Real Sociedad is not in bad form, but comparing their recent performances with Barcelona’s, it’s clear that Barcelona is the favorite to win. In fact, I even expect them to win by more than two goals. Barcelona’s attack is really strong, and they also have great midfielders. If we check their head-to-head record, Barcelona has a strong record against Real Sociedad. With the current winning spirit in Barcelona, it will be hard for Real Sociedad to get lucky or even manage a draw, but let’s see what happens at the end of the match.Recently, when I want to bet on Barcelona, I always have confidence in picking them as the straight-winning club.
The fact is that this match is not as easy as expected.
Sociedad did falter a little at the start of the season but when it comes to troubling the big clubs in recent seasons Sociedad have always been able to do just that and it looks like it will be the same in the match against Barcelona.
Sociedad know they won't be able to keep up with Barcelona's form so as much as possible they press and play defensively against the superior Barcelona at the moment which makes Barcelona a little troubled by Sociedad's passive style which is only focused on defense done.
But on the other hand, the match is still long although I like the score now where Sociedad is ahead but it looks like this second half will be more difficult even though the first half now Sociedad is likely to be superior until the final whistle but the challenge is in the second half later whether Sociedad is able or not to withstand the onslaught and scheme that Flick has prepared.
