Both these teams know that it will not be easy to get a result in this game given how hostile the crowd is and how difficult the playing conditions get to an extent. Alaves will look to take advantage of this fact and push forth.

Ranked 10th in goals conceded per match (1.2 goals), Alaves have been poor in their defence and know that they will have to be forceful in nature.
Injury Report
Jon Guridi and Aleksandar Sedlar are the two players ruled out of this game for Alaves. Sociedad, on the other hand, will have to make do without Martin Merquelanz and Igor Zubedia among others.
Prediction
We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game. It has to be remembered that Sociedad are ranked 7th in goals scored per match (1.4 goals). Real Sociedad haven't lost to Deportivo Alaves in their last 7 meetings (3W, 4D), which means that they have an upper hand in this game as well. They are ranked 8th in shots on target per match (4.3 shots).
