Real Sociedad on their way to the Champions League
Real Sociedad are playing a very good season in several competitions. However, the Basques have recently had a minor dip in their performances, which should now be rectified. The home match against Cadiz is a compulsory task, as the Real Sociedad Cadiz prediction of the betting providers also makes clear.
Of course, the hosts are the favourites in this match, if only because of the individual prerequisites. However, coach Imanol Alguacil must definitely help his team to show more clarity in the offensive area again.
Meanwhile, the visitors from Cadiz have some worries. The fight against relegation will not be easy. That’s why even a point would be a success. Due to the omens, our Real Sociedad vs. Cadiz tip is that the hosts will win.
Real Sociedad – Statistics & current form
Real Sociedad are doing quite well this La Liga season. The Basques have been able to show many good games, go into the matchday as the third-placed team and can advance on Friday night. They have 43 points, followed by Atletico (42), Betis (40) and Rayo Vallecano and Villarreal (34). A place in the top 5 should be a certainty in the end, but the Champions League is the goal that drives the players and managers.
In recent weeks, however, there has been a slight dip in form. Real Sociedad celebrated only one competitive match victory in the last six games. Before that, there were nine wins in a row. La Real therefore wants to get back on track. Especially offensively, things have been lacking in recent weeks, with a goal difference of 4:5 in the last five league games.
In general, there is little going on when the Basques play. At least in recent weeks. Despite the slight problems in the results, the defence has shown itself to be very strong. There have been 23 goals conceded in total this season, making Real Sociedad one of the best teams in this area.
Real Sociedad need to get more wins at home
The offensive problems can be proven statistically. Only 32 goals were scored by the Basques, which is not a good rate for a top team. Sörloth stands at nine goals, Mendez at seven. Otherwise, no player has more than four goals to his name. More penetrating power would be desirable, then things would look much better with the goal of the top division.
Another factor is the home games. Real Sociedad have won five of their 13 matches at home this season and have scored less often than away from home. The compactness is there too, but the 1.64 points per game average still needs to be improved. At least the programme of the next few weeks is in favour of the home side in the league, but in the Europa League they have the games against Roma on the agenda.
So the weeks of truth are definitely coming for La Real. A good start would be important and that should also succeed, because before the Real Sociedad vs. Cadiz match our tip is that the hosts will win.

Cadiz – Statistics & current form
Cadiz FC travel to San Sebastian looking to take something with them. Winning points in a relegation battle always boosts morale, even more so when the opponent is the favourite. Cadiz are in 16th place, with 25 points from 23 games. This record doesn’t seem too bad, but it’s not too outstanding either. The team of coach Sergio recently defeated Rayo Vallecano somewhat surprisingly and now wants to bring about the next positive match outcome.
The most important thing against Sociedad will be to relieve the pressure. And here we are already at the core of the problem, because the 18 goals Cadiz have scored so far are the third weakest in the league. What’s more, not a single player has scored more than three goals.
At least they have won two of their last three games. Cadiz, who had been in a relegation spot for a long time, thus managed to get back into the safe zone. Three home victories and two away defeats were the most recent results. Therefore, the away trip now does not necessarily come at the right time.
Cadiz away with big problems
This has been the case throughout the season anyway. Cadiz only won two of their six matches away from home, but lost seven times away from home and only three times at home. On top of that, they scored only six goals of their own away from home and only about half of the points.
In the next few weeks, Real Sociedad will be followed by opponents such as Getafe and Almeria, before the programme picks up considerably. Therefore, Cadiz must score now in order not to slide down again later on. The first relegation place is only two points away.
Due to the poor away and offensive record, our value tip before the Real Sociedad vs. Cadiz match is that the home side will take a start-finish victory.

Real Sociedad – Cadiz Direct comparison / H2H balance
35 Games played by these two teams so far. With 18 wins to date, La Real are very respectable in the direct comparison.

The first leg was close, but Real Sociedad won 1-0 in the end, with the Basques having won the last five league meetings.
Real Sociedad – Cadiz tip
Real Sociedad are of course favourites, as they are not in third place in La Liga for no reason. Against Cadiz, the most important thing will now be for the offensive to take a step forward. There has been a need to catch up here recently.
Cadiz often look very harmless, especially away from home. That’s why our tip before the Real Sociedad vs. Cadiz match is that the home side will come out on top.
