Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Real Sociedad B
Match Time & Date:

16:00
Prediction: 0-1
Lugo
Real Sociedad B and Lugo go head to head at Reale Arena in what is expected to be a close Segunda Division encounter. La Real B produced a couple of fine displays in the first half of the season, but they do not seem to be at the top of their game ahead of the visit of Lugo. All Pokorny, Magunazelaia Argoitia, and Aldasoro are pushing for a start, but former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso is likely to stick to the 3-4-3 formation.
Lugo, on the other hand, have been in a splendid form of late, with the team winning three of their last four league fixtures. Los Albivermellos are only five points behind the playoffs berth, and given Real Sociedad B’s anything but good form, we predict that the visitors are going to pick up all three points from the match. Keep in mind, though, that Diego Alende and Angel Carrillo are banned for the visiting team.
