Current streaks

Recent form

RCD Espanyol

RCD Espanyol's recent form presents a mixed picture, with their last six games resulting in 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses. Notably, the team has shown strong defensive capabilities, keeping 4 clean sheets in these matches and conceding only 0.5 goals per game on average. However, their offensive output has been somewhat limited, scoring just 4 goals across the 6 games (0.67 goals per game). The majority of their recent matches (83%) have been low-scoring affairs with under 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards tighter, defensive games. Their most recent competitive match, a 1-0 loss to Real Valladolid in La Liga, has placed them at the bottom of the league table after the first round. While there are no extended winning or losing streaks to report, the team's form appears to be declining, with their last two matches resulting in losses after a period of relative stability.

Real Sociedad

Real Sociedad's recent form has been concerning, with only one win in their last six matches. They are currently on a three-game winless streak, including losses in their last two competitive matches. The team has struggled defensively, conceding 8 goals in 6 games (1.33 per game), while their attacking output has been limited to just 5 goals (0.83 per game). Their sole victory came in a friendly against Gamba Osaka, but they have failed to carry that momentum into official competitions. With a negative goal difference of -3 and sitting in 18th position after their opening La Liga match, Real Sociedad will need to improve quickly to avoid a potential relegation battle. The majority of their recent games (67%) have seen both teams score, but have typically been low-scoring affairs with 67% featuring under 2.5 goals.

Recent home/away form

RCD Espanyol

RCD Espanyol's recent home form has been impressive, with the team remaining unbeaten in their last six matches at home. They have secured three wins and three draws, showcasing a solid defensive record by not conceding a single goal across these games. This defensive prowess is highlighted by an impressive run of six consecutive clean sheets. While their attacking output has been moderate, with an average of one goal scored per game, they managed a notable 3-0 victory against FC Cartagena in a Segunda División match. The majority of their games (83%) have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a tendency towards low-scoring encounters at home.

Real Sociedad

Real Sociedad's recent away form shows a mix of performances, with 3 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in their last 6 games. The team has been defensively solid, keeping 3 clean sheets and conceding only 0.67 goals per game on average. Their attacking output has been modest, scoring 1.17 goals per game.

The team enjoyed a brief run of three consecutive wins from May 19 to July 25, 2024, but their most recent results have been less positive, with a draw against Union Berlin and a loss to Rennes. It's worth noting that these games were friendlies, which might not fully reflect their competitive form.
