La Liga would continue it’s action this weekend as this time out the defending champions Real Madrid will host thier rivals Real Sociedad at the Santiago Bernabeu. Now coming into this game, both teams are two of the most in-form teams in Spain as they both have only lost once in thier last 5 matches in all competitions. Hence, this is the main reason why predicting a game like this is extremely difficult for football experts as both teams would be giving thier absolute best.

This match is 2nd vs 3rd in the points table with only 3 points separating both these teams and Sociedad do know that if they manage to pull off a miracle in Madrid and defeat Los Blancos, they would be level on points with them and then possibly even start to be in the title race.

If not the title, the away side are surely targeting to finish in the top 4 and passing a test like Real Madrid would surely be a big tick in thier book and of course increase thier chances to qualify for the Champions League.

However, despite thier motivation, Ancelotti’s side are the rightful favourites in this encounter due to the sensational quality that they in thier squad. Los Blancos are coming a quarter-final in the Copa Del Rey against thier city rivals Atletico Madrid and that is surely a mental boost for them and thier fans. Hence, given the squad depth that they have and amazing home crowd support that they’ll be receiving tight just mak them win this encounter and eventually stay in the title race with Barcelona.
