After a season that started with much promise, it seems Villarreal can only contest for a top-four finish in La Liga. Sitting fourth, they will be at home against seventh-placed Real Sociedad in their next league outing. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Villarreal will not view their 1-1 draw with Alaves as a setback. They remain fourth and well in control of their destiny, having opened up an 11-point buffer.
There are only 10 games to play, and the Yellow Submarines will want to close this up as soon as possible. A win here will see them rise to third, and they are hoping for a leap, as Atletico Madrid faces Real Madrid next. At home, they’ve won 11 of 14 league games.
Real Sociedad have hit form in their recent matches and come here very confident. They’ve won three of their last four matches. Among them was their ticket to the Copa Del Rey final, which takes them closer to European football.
The league also offers a route to Europe, and thus the visitors are on the right stride. After their 3-2 loss to Atletico Madrid, Sociedad recovered in their most recent outing with a 3-1 victory at home to Osasuna.
That was their sixth win in nine matches, but there’s a need for improvement on the road, having only won two of the last seven in La Liga.

Our Villarreal vs Real Sociedad Prediction
The ambition for these two sides is a place in Europe, and from all indications, they will both achieve that. However, there is still some way to go, and one of the qualities that will aid here is their goal scoring abilities.
On the flipside though, both sides haven't been at their absolute best defensively. As a result, their recent runs have constantly seen both teams score, and a high-scoring game is also part of the package here. Our prediction for Villarreal v Real Sociedad is for BTTS and over 2.5 goals.
