Overview.
Sevilla have won four of their last six La Liga (LL) home clashes with Real Sociedad and are still pursuing their first home victory of the new campaign, whilst wrestling to avoid their joint-worst start to a LL season since 2015/16. Despite scoring first on five of six occasions this season and holding three half-time leads, Sevilla have collected just three victories – all on the road – most recently giving up a 2-0 lead to lose at Eibar. They have already dropped points twice as a home favourite in the 2019/20 LL, after doing so just five times throughout their last campaign.
Sociedad are building some commanding form in their best six-game start to a season since opening 2002/03, when they managed a 19-game unbeaten run (and ultimately finished second). Concerningly for Sevilla, four wins from Sociedad’s last five LL fixtures includes three clean sheets and three victories of two or more goals.
Unlike their hosts, Sociedad are yet to concede a single equalising goal, going on to win each of the four occasions in which they opened the scoring. The final half-hour of the match, where Sevilla and Sociedad possess -3 and +3 goal differences respectively, could be crucial.
