Villarreal – Real Sociedad Prediction & Picks (18.08.2018)

Villarreal and Real Sociedad meet at the Estadio de la Cerámica in what is expected to be one of the most entertaining games of the first day of the new season.

Throughout the years, Villarreal has established itself as one of the best teams in the first Spanish disivon, and must have great confidence after winning 3-2 at Werder Bremen in its last preseason game. Villarreal is a true strength in home games and seeing that Real Sociedad was fighting in the backguard in the preseason, we are tempted to put our money in the troops of Javi Calleja. Denis Chéryshev, who impressed in the final phase of the 2018 World Cup earlier this summer, will be the player who attracts a lot of attention in the home team.

It is well known that the Real is not considered a good traveler in first leg matches, which is another reason why the victory at home should be considered.
