Real Sociedad Insights.

Surprise La Liga leaders Real Sociedad won 4-1 over the weekend, extending their competitive winning run to four. While three of those wins have been accompanied by a clean sheet, the last three witnessed Sociedad lead 1-0 at HT. Indeed, Sociedad have kept a HT clean sheet in seven of their eight competitive games this season (W5, D2, L1) with four games standing goalless at HT. By extension, nine of Sociedad’s 15 competitive goals this season have arrived beyond the hour mark and four (including their only UEL goal) have come beyond the 80th minute. Sociedad have won four of their last five UEL group stage games (W4, L1), each time with a clean sheet. That theme resonates at home too, where Sociedad have won four of their last six UEL home games (competition proper) ‘to nil’.

Napoli Insights.

Napoli warmed up for this first-ever UEFA H2H with a 2-1 weekend win which was only the second time in their five competitive matches (W4, L1) where both teams have scored (excluding the forfeited match). Slow starts remain a common theme, as Napoli have kept a HT clean sheet in four of those five aforementioned games. The Italian visitors are on four straight UEL losses (group stage to proper), failing to score in three of those. Additionally, six of Napoli’s last eight UEL games have seen one side keep a clean sheet. On the road, Napoli have lost their previous two UEL away matches, last losing three in a row in the competition proper between 2011 and 2012.
