Valladolid v Sociedad predictions and preview: Betting stats

Valladolid sat 10^th in La Liga going into the weekend with 10 points from their opening 8 games (W3 D1 L4) with fairly indifferent form of LLWDL despite their good home record of 2 wins, a draw and a defeat. Their games average 2.63 goals and 3 of their games have seen over 2.5 goals; 5 have had fewer.

Sociedad were 15^th before the weekend but have just one point fewer than their hosts today (W3 D0 L5). They have lost their last two games with form of WLWLL and are yet to register a point away from home. Their games average 2.5 goals and have seen the same amount of over/unders as Valladolid.

Team News and Run of Play

The home side will be without Alvaro Rubio and Lluis Sastre while the away side will be missing Zurutuza, Bravo and Elustondo.

Valladolid have been fairly solid recently, not least last weekend, leading Malaga and almost getting a draw until an 87^th minute winner for the home side. They have kept a good record in terms of goals conceded, having only let 3 goals past them in their 4 games at home.

Sociedad are victims of the congested mid-table with a poor league position despite an admirable number of points. Away from home however they have been poor, netting just twice and conceded 10 goals in the opening 4 away fixtures.

These two sides both went down to late winners last week and will no doubt be looking to bounce back, for me they are very evenly matched and Valladolid’s home scoring rate isn’t fantastic despite a 6-1 win against Vallecano a few weeks ago.

Valladolid v Sociedad predictions: 1X2 betting preview

For me this game screams a draw. The two sides are close in the standings and I believe Sociedad will want to get at least a point in order to end this awful run in away games. The draw is 3.53 with Pinnacle and for me that looks a bit for this Monday night fixture.

Can you see the stalemate? Bet it here.

Valladolid v Sociedad predictions: Asian Handicap preview

For me, backing the away side plus half a goal would be a win if the game ends in a draw or if they win. I probably favour the home side but the draw no bet price is too short. So Sociedad (+0.5) at 1.78 with BetVictor seems a decent price.

If you can see the away team registering their first away point, back it here.

Valladolid v Sociedad predictions: Total Goals preview

Neither team are high scoring and the averages tend to suggest the unders is the bet. For me under 2.5 goals at 1.91 with Pinnacle seems a good price. I can see a 1-1 here.

Agree with my thoughts, bet here.
