What to expect

We expect about 1.7 goals from Sociedad and 1.3 from Espanol, so Sociedad come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.9 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Both teams to score. Both of these carry enough of a threat to find the net (xG 1.7-1.3), and we make both teams to score about 59%. Expect goals at either end rather than a one-sided shut-out.

We put the chance of that landing at about 59 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.74, which works out at about 57 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.

What the numbers say
Sociedad have not won any of their last five.
Espanol have won three of their last five.
Three of the last five meetings had three goals or more.
Both teams scored in four of the last five meetings.

One thing to watch

If one attack goes missing for the night, both teams scoring falls flat. We make it about 59% and the price sits right on top of that, so there's little cushion if it turns.
