Prediction: 1-0
Real Sociedad
Getafe take on Real Sociedad at their Coliseum in what is expected to be a close La Liga encounter. Los Azulones shared the spoils with Rayo Vallecano at the weekend, but they were not in action in midweek due to Real Betis’ participation in European competitions. As a result, tired legs should not prove to be a big problem for the capital club. Jose Bordalas has a full squad to choose from for Sunday’s clash.
The Basques, on the other hand, suffered yet another shocking defeat in the new La Liga campaign on Wednesday, with the team losing to Alaves in the local derby. Given Mikel Oyarzabal’s suspension, we predict that Getafe are going to pick up all three points from the round 4 game. Nigeria forward Umar Sadiq is widely expected to replace Oyarzabal in the starting XI, while the likes of Elustondo, Odriozola, Zakharyan, and Tierney 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.
