Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

Our calculations suggest that there's minimal chance that this game will deliver 4 goals or more, and the odds and statistics point in the same direction as KO's predictive algorithm on this one. R.Vallecano and R.Sociedad have seldom served up thrillers of late, whether that be in La Liga individually or when going head-to-head. So, without a compelling favourite draw or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. The UK's top bookies have that available at a best price of 1.33.

Goal Statistics

Rayo Vallecano's defensive record is very strong, I. Pérez Soto's men having conceded 1 or less in 8 consecutive La Liga matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.1 for Real Sociedad makes sense in this context.
