Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad 17.09.2023 Prediction: La Liga

Match Overview

Real Madrid host Real Sociedad in a match in the fifth round of La Liga at the Santiago Bernabeu on 17 September, Sunday. The visiting side will want to go back with better memories than what they had the last two times they visited. On one occasion, they were treated to a 1-4 defeat while they played out a goalless draw on the other.
