Sevilla vs Real Sociedad: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from "Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan" has sunk to the point where they are just one point ahead of relegated Leganes. Matias Almeida, who arrived in the summer, initially showed decent results, but was dismissed in March. Luis Garcia had a poor debut, losing even to Oviedo. However, he then managed a 2-1 victory over Atletico, who were focused on the Champions League. But after that, Sevilla lost to both Levante and Osasuna.
The team from San Sebastian also performed noticeably worse in 2024/2025, finishing eleventh. And in the first half of the new season, things looked even worse—until a change of coach helped. With Matarazzo, they reached the cup final, where they managed to beat Atletico on penalties and claim the title. In La Liga, the struggle for survival turned into a fight for European spots. However, after their Copa triumph, they lost to Getafe and played an entertaining draw with Rayo Vallecano.
Agoumé and his teammates score an average of 1.21 goals per game, conceding 1.67. The Basque team's stats are currently even: 1.58 goals both scored and conceded per match.
