Prediction: 2-1
Real Sociedad
Celta Vigo and Real Sociedad face each other at Abanca-Balaidos in what is expected to be the most entertaining game of Thursday’s program in Copa del Rey. Celta Vigo head into the match following a thrilling 4-0 victory over Eibar and they are surely brimming with confidence ahead of the visit of Real Sociedad. Os Celeste are a real force to be reckoned with at home and seeing that the Basques failed to find the net in previous two league fixtures, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the hosts. A man to watch in the home side will be Iago Aspas, who scored a hat-trick against los Armeros. La Real, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid at the weekend and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Celta Vigo’s party in Galicia.
