It will be a battle for a semi-final slot at the Mendizorrotza Stadium this Wednesday when Alaves hosts Real Sociedad in the Copa del Rey. Going into this quarter-final match, Alaves have only ever reached the final, while Sociedad are two-time winners. Read on for our prediction.
Alaves are looking to at least replicate their 2017 performance in this competition, when they finished as runners up. Back then they lost to current holders Barcelona but will be eyeing a better run here.
Alaves have already eliminated Getxo, Portugalete, Sevilla, and Rayo to reach this round. That, and their current La Liga run will give the hosts the confidence.
Over the weekend, they beat Espanyol 2-1 for their second straight win against a top six side.
In Real Sociedad, Alaves meets another solid side. Txuri-Urdin are coming off a late heartbreak in a 1-1 draw with Athletic Bilbao in La Liga.
Goncalo Guedes’ first-half goal was canceled out in the 88th minute by Athletic. That leveler came minutes after Brais Mendez had been sent off.
Sociedad, however, stretched their unbeaten run to eight games. They have four wins and as many draws in that run.
Along the way, Sociedad have eliminated Osasuna, Eldense, Reus FCR, and SD Negreira.
Pellegrino Matarazzo’s men have suffered three straight defeats against Alaves. In their last meeting with Alaves in December, the two-time Copa winners lost 1-0.

Our Alavés vs Real Sociedad Prediction
Both Real Sociedad and Deportivo Alaves have had interesting runs in recent weeks and claimed key wins. That should pump up the confidence levels coming into this game. However, Alaves might have the edge here going by their head-to-head record against Real Sociedad.
In their last three meetings with Real Sociedad, the hosts posted straight wins. They have only lost once in six home matches against Sociedad and won three in the process. With such stats in mind, our prediction for Deportivo Alaves v Real Sociedad is that Alaves wins.
