Barcelona vs Real Sociedad Preview, Prediction and Betting Tips: Barcelona to face tough Real Sociedad test in congested fixture list

14:45 Saturday 15 April 2017

EVENT ENDED!

Barcelona come into the weekend after two consecutive defeats, with Real Sociedad ready to try and take advantage after ending their recent poor run last week.

Match Preview

Losses against both Malaga and Juventus, which both prevented Barcelona from finding the back of the net, have left Luis Enrique’s men in a tough position to pick themselves back up quickly.

    - Barcelona 4-2 Valencia
    - Granada 1-4 Barcelona
    - Barcelona 3-0 Sevilla
    - Malaga 2-0 Barcelona

Neymar will be a huge miss for the home side, after the Brazilian was sent off for two yellow cards against Malaga, before clapping the fourth official sarcastically to earn himself an extra two-match ban.

Luis Enrique’s men have won their last eight consecutive home matches in LaLiga, and you’ve have to look all the way back to September of last year to find a league defeat at Camp Nou.

    - Alaves 1-0 Real Sociedad
    - Real Sociedad 1-1 Leganes
    - Atletico 1-0 Real Sociedad
    - Real Sociedad 3-1 Sporting

Barcelona vs Real Sociedad Prediction and Betting Advice

After playing in the Champions League, the hosts may look to rotate, while Real Sociedad will be playing a full-strength side after picking up a 3-1 win over Sporting to boost their spirits.

Barcelona have been looking a little open at the back lately, and though they should win at Camp Nou this weekend, there is definitely potential for Eusebio’s side to make things interesting.
