Prediction: 2-1
Valladolid
Sunday’s football game at Estadio Municipal de Anoeta pits together Real Sociedad and Real Valladolid, the two teams who have different ambitions for the 2018/2019 La Liga season. La Real are eyeing a place in European competitions, whilst La Pucela aim to secure the La Liga survival. The Basques head into the match following a 1-0 loss to Real Betis, but the fact that they outplayed Celta Vigo in their last home fixture, is surely giving fans a reason for optimism. Real Valladolid, on the other hand, are on a five-game winless run in the Spanish elite division and they experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-2 loss to Leganes at the weekend. Over the years Real Sociedad have turned their Estadio Municipal de Anoeta into a real fortress and we predict that they are going to prove their worth on the field.

Highlighted Player (Asier Illarramendi):
Asier Illarramendi is a product of Real Sociedad’s youth school. He played for Real Sociedad B between 2008 and 2011, scoring 7 goals in 93 appearances for the Basque outfit and he made his first team debut on 23 January, 2011 in a 2-1 defeat to Villarreal. After impressing with Real Sociedad in the 2012/2013 Primera Division campaign, Real Madrid chiefs decided to sign him on 12 July, 2013 for a fee of €32.2 million. Back then that was the highest amount paid by the club for a Spanish footballer, but he failed to impress at Real Madrid.
After spending two seasons at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, Asier Illarramendi returns to Real Sociedad on 26 August, 2015 and he has been playing for the Anoeta outfit ever since. Asier Illarramendi scored one goal in 33 appearances for La Real in the 2015/2016 La Liga campaign.
