Real Sociedad -0.75 or -1 are the best bets here.

Real Sociedad is struggling lately. After an excellent start of the season, had a period with many injuries and matches without enough time to rest (and the impossibility to make enough rotations due to the absences). Spanish Cup, La Liga, Europa League…

But lately they are improving thanks to the recovery of several key players and more time to rest, as they are playing only the league.Are sitting 6th (last position of Europa League), with 3 points difference to Villarreal (7th) and 5 below Betis (5th).

For this match will miss their captain Oyarzabal due to an injury, while Januzaj is suspended, but have Rafinha available.

The week to rest and recover players it’s very important for this team as the coach said. They already showed it in the last game vs Sevilla. They played so well and physically were in much better form.

On the other hand, Espanyol has no motivation anymore. The target is almost done, they are 10 points above relegation, which is a big success for them. Have been a very strong home team but an awful traveler, with only one victory so far this season (14 away games played). Recently, Villarreal (who has a similar level to Real Sociedad) beat them 5:1.

The victory last weekend against Mallorca confirmed that they won’t be involved in relegation trouble at the end of the season.

Furthermore, coach Vicente Moreno has to deal with two very important missings: goalkeeper Diego Lopez and best player - the striker Raul De Tomas, 2th topscorer of the league with 14 goals.

Real Sociedad will try to put a high pace and rhythm on the game, as they are now physically able to do it. Of course will dominate as they have much more quality and better midfield than Espanyol.

Hosts will have much more motivation and have more quality, plus the missings of Raul De Tomas in the guests which makes the difference in attack.

皇家社会最近举步维艰。在赛季有了一个出色的开始之后，有一段时间伤病不断，比赛也没有足够的时间休息(而且由于缺阵也无法进行足够的轮换)。西班牙杯，西甲，欧罗巴联赛…

但最近，由于几名关键球员的恢复和更多的休息时间，他们正在改善，因为他们只在联盟比赛。目前排名第六(欧罗巴联赛最后一个名次)，比比利亚雷亚尔(第七)差3分，比贝蒂斯(第五)差5分。

因为这场比赛他们的队长奥亚尔扎巴尔将因伤缺阵，而雅努扎伊将被禁赛，但拉菲尼亚可以上场。

就像教练说的，休息和恢复球员对于球队来说是非常重要的。他们已经在上一场对塞维利亚的比赛中表现出来了。他们打得很好，身体状况也好多了。

另一方面，西班牙人已经没有动力了。这个目标几乎完成了，他们比保级高了10分，这对他们来说是一个巨大的成功。是一支非常强大的主场球队，但在客场却很糟糕，本赛季到目前为止只有一场胜利(14场客场比赛)。最近，比利亚雷亚尔(与皇家社会级别相近)以5:1击败了他们。

上周末对马洛卡的胜利证实了他们不会在赛季末陷入降级的麻烦。

此外，主教练莫雷诺还需要处理两个非常重要的缺阵:门将迭戈·洛佩斯和最佳球员劳尔·德·托马斯，后者以14粒进球位居联赛射手榜第二。

皇家社会将尝试在比赛中加入高节奏和节奏，因为他们现在的身体状况能够做到这一点。当然，他们会占据统治地位，因为他们的中场比西班牙人有更多的质量和更好的中场。

主队将会有更大的动力和更强的素质，再加上主队的劳尔·德·托马斯的缺席，使得进攻变得与众不同。
