Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Villarreal and Real Sociedad go head to head at Estadio de la Ceramica in what is expected to be an exciting La Liga game. The Yellow Submarine aim to build on a thrilling 5-1 win over Rayo Vallecano, and they must be high on spirits ahead of the penultimate day of the season. Both Alberto and Gerard Moreno are doubtful for the match, while Paco Alcacer should keep his place in the starting XI after finding the net in the midweek triumph.
La Real, on the other hand, faced no difficulties in a 3-0 win over Cadiz. The Basques have already booked their place in European competitions, and seeing that they would be happy with one point from Sunday’s clash, the share of spoils is on the horizon. The good news for the visitors is that both Isak and Le Normand are back from suspension.
