Real Sociedad will look to return to winning ways when they host Cadiz at Reale Arena this Friday.
After a positive start to the season, the hosts are enduring a poor showing in this second half of the campaign. A 1-0 loss to struggling Valencia last time means that Imanol Aguacil’s side have now won just once in their last six games in all competitions (D2, L3).
Despite this, they remain in a good position in the league. The hosts currently sit in third position, one point above Atletico Madrid in fourth.

But they cannot afford to drop points here, having already dropped points six times against the ten clubs sitting 11th or lower going into this round (W8, D2, L4).
However, the last time Cadiz Sociedad was in 1993. Since then, they have lost eight times and drawn three games against the hosts in all competitions.
But they will come into this tie with belief, having won three of their last five games while keeping three clean sheets. Yet, those three wins came at home, while their last three away league games have ended in defeat and just one goal scored.
But the fact that they are fighting for survival means they cannot stop putting in maximum effort. Currently, they are sitting in 16th position, two points ahead of 18th-placed Valencia. So they could return to the relegation zone if they fail to win this game.
Meanwhile, since the World Cup, 15 out of the 18 league games involving either side produced less than 2.5 total goals. So the correct score prediction for this game is under 2.5 goals.
