On Thursday, the betting offer is slightly weaker than it has been in the past few days, and this time we have analyzed the match between Sociedad and Valencia for you. The start of this match is scheduled for 10 PM.
Sociedad: Can the team from Anoeta maintain the seventh position?
It is difficult to expect Sociedad’s players to repeat last season, which was truly exceptional, as the team from San Sebastián managed to secure fourth place and thereby qualify for the most prestigious European club competition. Speaking of the Champions League, it must be said that, against all expectations, the club from Anoeta reached first place in a very challenging group where the Spanish representative left behind Inter, Benfica, and Salzburg, noting that Inter had everything in their hands in the last round to secure first place by defeating Sociedad, but that duel in Milan ended without a winner and without goals. Unfortunately, the Spanish team faltered at the first hurdle against a realistically stronger PSG, but their performance in the Champions League was commendable.
As for this season, it will be a great success if the team from San Sebastián qualifies for the third-tier European club competition, as Sociedad currently sits in seventh place with three rounds to go, three points ahead of eighth-placed Villarreal, who have been playing at a very high level in the second part of the season. In the last five league matches, the team from Anoeta has achieved only one victory, at home against Las Palmas with a score of 2-0. In the previous round, Sociedad was defeated in a very difficult away match against Barcelona, with a score of 2-0, and interestingly, the Catalans returned to second place on the table with that victory.
Regarding home performances, the Spanish Champions League representative has played seventeen matches at Anoeta this season, achieving seven wins, six draws, and four losses, with two of those defeats occurring in the last five home matches, in a stadium that has been an impregnable fortress for many Spanish giants for years. Finally, with a potential victory in this match, Sociedad would almost certainly secure a place in the Conference League, so it seems that the players of this team will have great motivation tonight.
Valencia: The “Bats” have been playing very poorly lately!
Valencia has failed to qualify for any European competitions for many years, and looking back at last season, it seems that the fans of this team can be overjoyed that the club even managed to stay in the elite tier of Spanish football. The former champion of Spain aimed to qualify for a European competition this season, but as things stand now, it seems that this won’t be the case this time either. With three rounds to go, the team from Mestalla is in ninth place on the table, six points behind seventh-placed Sociedad. If Valencia doesn’t win tonight, they will definitely miss out on European qualification. If the popular “Bats” manage to soar over Anoeta, the point difference with two rounds remaining would be just three points, which is certainly not insurmountable, especially since Sociedad has been showing quite inconsistent performances lately.
However, Valencia hasn’t been much better either, as they have achieved only one victory in their last five matches in the elite tier of Spanish football. That win came in a tough away match against Osasuna in Pamplona, where the score was 0-1. Besides that, the team has suffered three losses and one draw. In the previous round, the “Bats” only managed a draw at their stadium against Rayo Vallecano, and that match at Mestalla ended goalless. It was a good opportunity for the home team to close the gap to just four points behind the seventh-placed team on the table.
Regarding away matches, Valencia has played seventeen away games so far, and it seems that the team hasn’t shone much, achieving five wins, three draws, and nine losses. The last match between Sociedad and Valencia was played at the end of September in Valencia, where the visitors won 0-1. Interestingly, the team from San Sebastián was delivering its best performances in the elite tier of Spanish football during that period. Finally, it’s worth noting that in the last six encounters between these two teams, there have been four draws, with each team winning one match.
