Although Real Sociedad failed to qualify for the UEFA Champions League zone, as the team finished 6th in the standings, they left a good impression. This summer the squad has not changed much (only Le Norman left for Atletico Madrid), it is also worth noting that at the triumphant for Spain Euro-2024 most of the players of the main squad represented just Real Sociedad.
Rayo Vallecano were close to relegation last season, the team finished in 17th place, having a gap of 5 points from the red zone. This summer, Rayo Vallecano has not yet made any reinforcements in the squad, although they lost their main goalkeeper.
Both face-to-face meetings last season between the teams ended in a draw, but today we are inclined to win Real Sociedad, as the club has been more active in preparing for the new season.
Prediction: Real Sociedad to win. We recommend the “1 Win” bet, odds 1.63
