Real Sociedad is having a pretty good season so far. In the first nine rounds of the Primera Division they managed to win 13 points and those 13 points are enough currently for 7th place. On the other hand, Leganes has also played nine rounds so far this season and in those 9 games they managed to win 10 points which is enough for 14th position. Real Sociedad’s manager, Eusebio Sacristan, will have some serious problems with selecting the first eleven because Jon Gaztanaga, Joseba Zaldua, Bergara, and Agirretxe are all injured and will miss this game.
In the last month or so, Leganes played five games. In those five games they managed to win in one game. In the remaining four games they were defeated. It is important to say that Leganes was defeated in the three consecutive games. On the other hand, Real Sociedad also played five games in that period of time. In those five games, they managed to win on two occasions. In the remaining games they were defeated. It is important to say that they were able to win in the last game that they have played in the Primera Division.

Leganes and Real Sociedad will be meeting for the first time in a competitive football match.
Leganes vs Real Sociedad: Prediction
Since there are no previous records of matches between these two sides, we are heavily reliant on the form guide to draw predictive analysis for this particular fixture. To make things more complicated the home versus away form of these two sides are pretty similar as Leganes keen picking points away from home and Sociedad in front of their fans. However, Real Sociedad gets the favourite tag as they are a more experienced side and have already defeated one promoted side this season away from home. And this will be the kind of matches they eye for maximum points from road games.
But one thing we can be very certain is the number of goals this match will produce. Both teams have difficulties in their defence and are conceding heavily at the moment. Also they are capable of scoring goals and both have scored in 8 of their 9 matches this season. So both teams to score and over 2.5 goals is a better pick for this game.
As derived from the two analysis above, punters who like to take a risk can go for a correct full-time score of 2-1 in favour of Real Sociedad for this fixture.
