The La Liga clash between Real Sociedad and Real Valladolid on March 29, 2025, at the Anoeta Stadium is poised to be a significant encounter for both teams. Real Sociedad currently finds itself in a precarious position with a six-game winless streak, placing them in 12th position in the league table . In contrast, Valladolid is struggling at the bottom of the standings, with their recent form suggesting that they are unlikely to escape relegation this season. Despite Sociedad's underwhelming home record, their overall performance indicators appear superior when compared to Valladolid's dismal away statistics.
Real Sociedad and Real Valladolid will face off in San Sebastian on Saturday. Hosts Sociedad are nine points below the European football slots while Valladolid are bottom, 11 points below safety. Below we have a prediction for this match.
The international break must have come at an opportune moment for these two. Real Sociedad needed it to strategize after going winless in six matches.
In the latest of them, they needed a late goal to pick a point, in a 2-2 draw with Rayo Vallecano. That was the third of their last five games, to produce four or more goals.
Real Sociedad possible starting lineup: Remiro; Aramburu, Zubeldia, Elustondo, Munoz; Benat, Zubimendi, S Gomez; Kubo, Oskarsson, Oyarzabal
Real Valladolid possible starting lineup: Hein; Candela, Comert, J Sanchez, Aznou; Tuhami, Martin, Niktischer, Grillitsch, Moro; Sylla
Valladolid won’t have had nearly as many internationals busy over the break, though Juanmi Latasa is one hot commodity the team will want firing fit upon the return to action.
The 24-year-old has been responsible for each of Valladolid’s last two goals, scoring in back-to-back games against Valencia and Las Palmas after months without a goal since joining in the summer.
This prediction is supported by Sociedad's possession-based style of play and better recent statistics, such as higher pass accuracy and more goals scored in head-to-head encounters. Additionally, injuries affecting both squads could further tilt the balance in favor of Sociedad. Although specific lineups and broadcast information are not available, the expectations for this match suggest an opportunity for Sociedad to improve its standing while exacerbating Valladolid's challenges.
