Valencia vs Real Sociedad Prediction: Don’t expect a lot of goals

In the 23rd round of the Spanish La Liga, Valencia will host Real Sociedad at the Mestalla. The Basques are quite rightly regarded as the favorites.

Valencia

The change of coach has not yet led to anything; Valencia lost again last week, this time away to Getafe. We noted that Ruben Baraja as a coach, has not proved anything in the past, so it is surprising that the club's managers have bet on this specialist. Baraja is one of the symbols of the last golden generation of Valencia but as a player. Let's see, we may be wrong, but we should hardly be surprised if, in the end, the future hosts of the field will leave the elite. Valencia's losing streak has increased to six matches. They are in 19th position in the standings, two points behind Almeria, located in the saving 17th position.

Real Sociedad

Not everything is perfect for the Basques at the moment, either. After being eliminated from the Spanish Cup, Real Sociedad played four matches: the defeat at home to Valladolid draws with Real and Celta, and a victory over Espanyol. The results are average. However, it does not prevent the Basques from staying in the Champions League competitions. After 22 rounds, Real Sociedad is third, +13=4-5, 32:22. The Basques are six points ahead of fifth-place Betis. However, it is worth mentioning that the Sevillians will play their game a day earlier, so the gap may narrow by Saturday's pool. They have the third-best away statistics in the division, better only by the two leaders, +8=1-2, 19:10 goal difference.

Expert Betting Tips

In the match against Getafe, Valencia conceded only one goal but could not score. It is not sure that the Levantines will be able to score this coming Saturday. Real Sociedad is historically a home team, but the Basques have excellent away statistics this season. Again, only Real Madrid and Barcelona have better away numbers than RS. Considering Valencia's awful situation, we wouldn't be surprised if the Basques win their ninth away in La Liga 2022/23 on Saturday. As for the total, we doubt that the upcoming game will be rich in goals.
