Real Sociedad is looking for a turnaround; they've lost to Atlético Madrid in La Liga and to Bournemouth in the Europa League, but the Basque club seems to have drawn an ideal opponent: Valencia, who have had a dismal start to the season, are already in the relegation zone, and have just sacked Carlos Corberán.
Óscar Sánchez replaced Corberán as manager of Los Che, and he started with a 1-0 away win against Alavés, who were in good form, thanks to a goal from Rioja. However, this hasn't compensated for the rather poor football Valencia played at the beginning of the season.
Valencia hasn't managed two consecutive home wins against Real Sociedad since 2018. In fact, the sportsbooks are favoring a close match in the pre-match odds, considering Real Sociedad's obvious difficulties in winning away from home.

Our Valencia vs Real Sociedad Prediction
Luis Rioja scored just Valencia's second goal of the season in six league games, but he is a potential absentee in a squad that already has up to seven injured players.
This is another good opportunity to consider betting on a low-scoring match; this has been quite common when the Basque side and Los Che have met at Mestalla from 2022 to the present.
Our prediction for Valencia vs Real Sociedad is: Under 2.5 goals.
