There will be fireworks when Real Sociedad and Bournemouth face each other at Reale Arena in what promises to be an entertaining Europa League clash. La Real are seeking a response after a 3-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid, conceding three late goals, including a controversial penalty. Joe Martin returns from suspension, while Takefusa Kubo is pushing for a starting role. Sociedad have won just 30% of their last 10 matches and have scored only 0.67 goals per game at home.
Bournemouth, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a thrilling 2-2 draw with Brentford at the weekend. Tyler Adams picked up a knock but is expected to recover, while Adli, Kroupi, Milosavljevic and Araujo remain sidelined. The Cherries have been involved in high-scoring games recently, averaging 4.80 goals per match across their last 10, with BTTS landing in 90%. They have also scored in every one of those fixtures.
As stronger recent form gives Bournemouth the edge in Thursday's encounter, Away Win should be considered, alongside Bournemouth or Draw and Over 2.5 goals (Bournemouth's games average 4.80 goals).
This Europa League match will be played on Thursday 17 September 2026 at 20:00.
