Valencia-Real Sociedad is a La Liga Week 7 match and is played on Wednesday at 21:30: likely line-ups, predictions, TV and streaming
For Valencia last weekend came their first draw of the season. An away point at Almeria also left a bitter taste in the mouths of Baraja’s men, who nevertheless seem to have put last year’s problems behind them, when a difficult league led to the team fighting for safety until the last few days.
Now, moreover, comes a very difficult engagement against Real Sociedad. Although Alguacil’s team is objectively superior to those playing home games at the Mestalla, they come from an incredible run of games, not least because of their Champions League commitment against Simone Inzaghi’s Inter Milan. There is also something else to underline: against Getafe, last weekend, Sociedad managed to win in a comeback 4-3, putting in all the physical and mental energy that made the difference. A victory that could be paid dearly in tonight’s match. Yes, tiredness could definitely make the difference. No doubt about it.
And that is why, in our humble opinion, Valencia are slight favourites. The home team might be able to take an important victory and stay in the upper reaches of the table.
The Prediction
In a match with at least one goal per team, Valencia might be able to take a decisive victory for the future of the season. A match which should also yield at least three goals in total
