Sevilla vs Real Sociedad Prediction
Sevilla were unbeaten in four consecutive games, winning twice, before facing Real Madrid away last weekend. They put up a good showing against Los Blancos as well but were ultimately beaten by an excellent goal from Luka Modric.
Real Sociedad, meanwhile, surprisingly lost against Villarreal before being eliminated from the Copa del Rey by Mallorca. They have won just one of their last eight games across competitions.
While home advantage might help Sevilla, they are missing a host of key players and might find it hard to beat a determined Real Sociedad side.
