Almeria, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 1-0 away defeat by Alaves will have left the Almeria squad feeling a little deflated. They came away from that fixture with 44% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 3 on target. By comparison, Alaves managed 23 attempts on goal, with 3 on target.
With 7 goals scored in their last 6, they might have expected more points from that run of matches, but having conceded 19 goals along the way, things haven't been going their way points-wise. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 13 games overall.
Almeria will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row no wins in 15 games.
Goalscorer Luis Suárez will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Almeria.
Real Sociedad, Recent FormThe Real Sociedad players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Barcelona recently, that ended in a 1-0 defeat. Their share of possession in that meeting was 51%, while racking up 13 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Barcelona had 12 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Manager Imanol Alguacil will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 8 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 5 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.
On an individual basis, Mikel Oyarzabal will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Real Sociedad's last 6 league games.
It was no surpirise that the last time these two teams met Real Sociedad came out on top, winning the match 1-0.
Txuri-Urdin will be confident of finding the net in this one against Almeria, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 8 encounters between the two sides. In their last 2 league meetings with Txuri-Urdin, Almeria have not been on scoring form, not managing a single goal. When Sociedad visit Rojiblancos in the league, goals tend to happen, with 7 from their previous 3 encounters and a scoring average of 2.33 goals per match.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams, Sociedad has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Almeria in 3 games.
Almeria manager Gaizka Garitano has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Álex Centelles (Muscle), Ibrahima Koné (Ankle), Marc Pubill (Knee) and Luis Suárez (Metatarsal fracture) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Imanol Alguacil has a number of injury concerns in his Sociedad squad to contend with: Ander Barrenetxea (Hamstring), Martín Merquelanz (Knee), Jon Pacheco (Muscle), André Silva (Muscle) and Kieran Tierney (Hamstring)
