Real Sociedad plays host to Espanyol in matchday three of La Liga, both looking to bounce back from losing outings. While Espanyol are gunning for their second win of the season, Sociedad are targeting their first point(s). Meetings between these teams last season ended in draws, and our prediction backs the same. 

Real Sociedad haven’t been the same team since winning the Copa del Rey last season. They opened this campaign with a 1-0 before falling 4-1 to Real Madrid in their second. 

Sociedad are on a winless run of 10 matches, five being draws. This is their worst run of form in La Liga since 2010/11.

Espanyol are stepping out of their comfort zone to play on the road for the first time this season. They posted a loss and a win in their opening games. 

Against Real Madrid in their latest outing Espanyol conceded very late in a 2-1 defeat when it had seemed they would hold on for a point. Away from home, things will not be easy for the side currently on a winless run in 10 of the last 11 away league games. 

Their case is even more complicated by the fact that they are winless in seven against Sociedad.

Our Real Sociedad vs Espanyol Prediction

These two sides drew a combined 26 times last season as they both finished with 46 points. They drew both meetings in the process. This season they have started off in more or less the same fashion as they did last term - shakily.

Here they are both coming off defeats, and Real Sociedad, who have had the poorer run of form, are unbeaten in seven against Espanyol. The visitors are winless in 11 away league matches and will hope to do better here. Our prediction for Real Sociedad v Espanyol is for a draw.
