Prediction: 0-2
Real Sociedad
Saturday’s football game at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes pits together Granada and Real Sociedad, the two sides who sit in the opposite halves of the table. Los Granadinos are stuck in the relegation zone with slim survival chances, but the hope dies last. Anyhow, home win should not be considered Alexander Medina’s troops experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 5-1 loss to Villarreal. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of La Real.
The Basques, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Villarreal and Sevilla, but they will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways in the Spanish top flight. Jon Pacheco serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while all Fernandez, Merquelanz, Munoz, Odriozola, and Zakharyan remain in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Mikel Oyarzabal):
Intelligence is not an attribute you will find in Mikel Oyarzabal’s stats with Real Sociedad but this tricky winger is a highly knowledgeable winger who will use both brain and feet while playing. For a player born in Eibar, who made his first steps in his hometown club, it was always going to be a choice between Athletic Bilbao and Real Sociedad for Oyarzabal.
La Real saw their chance and grabbed this gem of a player at a young age, helping him develop into a proper professional throughout their youth ranks. Mikel Oyarzabal has spent the entirety of his senior career with the Basque behemoths where he’d use his ability to fill in a number of positions up top much to his own benefit.
Oyarzabal’s positioning and movement are work of a tactical genius, whereas it is his nous to find details to exploit that best define him as a player. Having come through the youth categories of the Spanish national team, Oyarzabal also has a senior cap next to his name. It was in 2016 that he also represented the Basque region, scoring on his debut to cap a 3-1 win over Tunisia.
Highlighted Team (Granada):
Granada are an Andalusian football club that plays in Spanish La Liga. The club were founded on 14 April, 1931 and they have yet to win the Primera Division trophy. El Grana, though, booked their place in the Spanish Cup final in 1959, but Barcelona proved to be a big catch for the Andalusian outfit.
Granada host their rivals at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes, the stadium that was built in 1995. The capacity of the stadium is 23,934. Granada’s main rivals are fellow Andalusian team Sevilla, but Real Betis are regarded as the club’s bitter rivals as well.
The likes of Yacine Brahimi, Juan Aguero, Gustavo Benitez, Pahinho, Denis Milar, Julio Montero Castillo, Capi, Cesar and Jose Mingorance are famous players that were part of the Estadio El Sadar outfit in the past. The original colour of Granada’s kits were blue and white, but after the Spanish Civil War the club chiefs bought new ones (red and white).
