In the forecast, the bookmakers see in this comparison, the Madrilenians still clearly in the role of favorites.
This may not be surprising at first glance as the Royal ones are unbeaten at home this season.
Before the international break Real Madrid had to play away in Eibar, where the team of coach Zidane with a great idea a 5-0 victory won. However, now traveling with Real Sociedad one of the big surprise teams in the Spanish capital.
Although the Basques did not make it past a draw in a home game against Leganes, they have already made many excellent appearances this season. Therefore, the football fans can look forward to an interesting showdown between the two teams.
Real Madrid :
At Real Madrid, Zinedine Zidane has taken over the coaching position during the last season. The club management was at this time with the development of the team under both Lopetegui and under Solari not satisfied. This led to a return of Zidane, who won the Champions League three times in a row with Real Madrid during his tenure.
In the current season but not everything runs as desired with the Madrid. This is partly due to the fact that the newcomers such as an Eden Hazard have not yet fully hit. Nevertheless, Real Madrid continue to be well positioned in both the Champions League and La Liga.
In the premier class, the Madrilenians are already more than a leg in the second round and in the Spanish league you are tied to Barcelona and is only due to the worse goal difference only on the second place in the table. In La Liga, Real Madrid have remained unbeaten three times and have taken two wins and one draw at this time.
However, one was not satisfied with the goalless draw in their own stadium against Betis Sevilla. The team of coach Zidane showed before in the home game against Leganes still a gala performance and celebrated a 5-0 home win. In the Santiago Bernabeu, Real Madrid is unbeaten in all competitions this season.
Before the international break, the Madrilenians had to play away at Eibar, where it was after a strong performance for a loose 4-0 away win. Karim Benzema again scored two goals in this match and is currently the top goalscorer in La Liga with nine goals. Overall, Real Madrid have scored 25 goals in the league, putting them second only to Barcelona behind Barcelona.
On the other hand, Real Madrid had to concede only nine goals, making it the second best defensive in Spain. In the Santiago Bernabeu the Madrilenians won the last four home games and were twice conceded without conceding. The coach does not like the fact that with James, Asensio and Nacho, three players are out of action due to more serious injuries.
Real Sociedad:
For Real Sociedad, things are going much better this season after a disappointing last season. A decisive reason for this upswing seems to be coach Imanol, who has brought the Basques back into the lane quickly after assuming office during the last season.
Real Sociedad is currently in great shape and has recently made the international break in fifth place. From the previous 13 league games Real Sociedad scored a very strong 23 points. However, in Basque’s Real Seguros Stadium, the Basques did not manage so well after the conversion.
Accordingly, the team of coach Imanol took home only ten points and is thus in the home table only in 15th place. Real Sociedad, on the other hand, is much stronger in away games. Here the Basques are even the most successful team in La Liga. All in all, Real Sociedad has taken 13 points away from home with four wins and one draw, and had to be defeated twice in a foreign country.
By the way, in the away games Real Sociedad scored at least one goal every time, except for one exception. La Real were without a goal, namely only in the 0-2 defeat in Bilbao. Overall, Real Sociedad scored ten goals away from home, putting them second only to attackers Granada, the second-strongest offensive on the opponent’s place.
Overall, Real Sociedad has been very stable over the past few weeks, losing only one of five league games. For the upcoming away match in the Spanish capital, the Basques should also hope that they won both games against the Madrid team last season.
Still failing is the injured Illarramendi and in addition there are still question marks behind the battered Portu and Zaldua.
