Real Sociedad vs Getafe Prediction and Betting Tips | September 24th 2023
The Spanish La Liga returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Real Sociedad and Getafe go head-to-head at Reale Arena on Sunday.
The hosts head into the weekend fresh off the back of picking up an impressive draw against Inter Milan in their Champions League opener and will look to build on that result.
Real Sociedad kicked off their Champions League campaign on a positive note as they held last season’s runners-up Inter Milan to a 1-1 draw in their Group D opener on Wednesday.
With that result, Imanol Alguacil’s men have now gone unbeaten in 14 straight home matches across all competitions, claiming seven wins and seven draws since February’s 1-0 loss against Rayo Vallecano.
Real Sociedad now turn their attention to La Liga, where they have won just one of their opening four matches while losing once and claiming three draws so far.
Getafe continued their impressive run of results on home turf as they picked up a 3-2 victory over Osasuna at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez last Sunday.
Jagoba Arrasate’s side have now won their last two home matches, with a slender 2-1 defeat against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu on September 2 being the exception.
With seven points from five matches, Getafe are currently ninth in the La Liga standings, one point and two places above Sunday’s hosts.
