Nothing to choose between the sides
Things have changed since Real Sociedad lost their first game of the season; they’ve gone unbeaten in the 17 games they’ve played since then. Los Txuri-Urdin have drawn a lot of those games though – especially recently. Three of their last four games ended in draws. It’s worth noting that half the games in Group B have ended in draws too. Real Sociedad have drawn three of their four group games with Monaco drawing two from four. Monaco have also had their fair share of draws with their last three games ending level. Considering the reverse fixture also ended in a draw, we believe the spoils will be shared again.
A low scoring match
Monaco have had some trouble finding the back of the net recently; they’ve failed to score in three of their last four games. Niko Kovac’s men have kept two clean sheets in their last three games, with three of their last four games going under 2.5. In like manner, Real Sociedad have not conceded in their last two games. They’ve conceded just two goals in their last five games, keeping three clean sheets. Real Sociedad’s games tend to be on the low scoring side; their last five, and 10 of their last 11 games, have gone under 2.5. All signs point to another low scoring game.
At least one side will blank
Our final prediction will be on the BTTS market. We’ve mentioned that Real Sociedad have not conceded in their last two games; we should also point out that at least one side has blanked in five of their last eight games. Monaco have failed to score in three of their last four games whilst keeping two clean sheets in those games. At least one side has blanked in three of those four matches. With this in mind, we believe at least one of these teams will keep a clean sheet when they meet.

Monaco vs Real Sociedad: Meet the teams
Monaco
Monaco will look to put an end to their four match winless streak as they take on Real Sociedad today. Niko Kovac’s men are Group B leaders and a win will put some distance between them and second place. Wissam Ben Yedder is the man to keep an eye out for in this fixture.
Real Sociedad
Despite going down to ten men, Real Sociedad managed to hold their own against Valencia last weekend. It saw Los Txuri-Urdin extend their unbeaten run to 17 games. Sociedad will overtake Monaco for the top spot if they win this match; it will be interesting to see if Mikel Oyarzabal can lead his team to victory.
