Spain – La Liga | Real Sociedad VS Alaves; Wednesday, 03 January at 02:15 GMT +8

Real Sociedad, a Basque club, has been unbeaten in 10 matches since a 0-1 loss to Barcelona in November. However, recent performances suggest a decline in their winning spirit. They have a goalless draw in their last LaLiga game and are currently in last place in the European table, seven points behind fourth-placed Barcelona.

Alaves, newly promoted to LaLiga, failed to capitalize on a numerical advantage to upset Real Madrid, and faced consequences for their poor performance. Despite a small point from the previous four LaLiga contests, they now have only three points more than Celta, who are the first below the red line. Lucas scored the winner in injury time.

Manager Imanol Alguacil is not expected to make significant changes to the squad, as Hamari Traore and Aritz Elustondo are doubtful for Tuesday’s Basque clash after picking up injuries in the 0-0 draw against Cadiz.

Alaves boss Luis Garcia will have to consider his starting XI for the upcoming match against Real Sociedad, as his team has three consecutive draws without scoring. Aleksandar Sedlar and Giuliano Simeone are recovering from injuries, and Ruben Duarte will be suspended for the Basque match.

Predicted lineups:

Real Sociedad
