Match Prediction:
Despite Real Sociedad on a high after their last game, they’d be more than aware of the fact that Real Madrid can do the same to them what they did to Deportivo La Cortuna. Real Madrid will only have to make sure they do not fall prey to another blunder like they did against Levante. We predict it to be a 3-1 win for Real Madrid.
