Real Sociedad – Manchester United, Prediction – Europa League

👌 Real Sociedad is showing serious character this season

Real Sociedad is chasing 4th place in Spain, but this seems a very difficult task at the moment mainly because of the great form of Sevilla, who are actually 1 point behind Barcelona. Real Sociedad had a very weak period in December, in which they won only 3 points in 6 games and this detached them a lot from the battle for the title, and later from the battle for the top 4. In the groups of the Europa League, Real did not seem to be so concentrated in the fall and recorded only 2 wins from 6 games, but they were enough to advance.

⚽ Man United must prove itself in Europe, although not in the Champions League

This match of Man United immediately reminds us why the Red Devils play in the Europa League at all, and the reason is the unexpected loss to RB Leipzig in the last match of the Champions League groups in the fall, when the Red Devils did not have to lose to the Germans, so they remained 3rd. The Red Devils have rarely lost lately, but they have a lot of draws and that takes them away from the title fight. In the last round, United was sharply criticized for the draw in the visit of West Bromwich, who is 19th in England.

Real Sociedad is not doomed against United

 Expert view: Real Sociedad has David Silva, who at the age of 35 is still a great footballer and is one of the most important players on the team. Sociedad rarely misses to score a goal at home in the Europa League, and the same is true in all tournaments. Real have scored at least one goal in 9 of their last 10 home games. United, on the other hand, no matter how strong as a guest, almost do not record clean sheets as such, except against the strongest teams in England, because there the goal of the Red Devils is a draw. Prediction – BTTS at 1.70.
