Pre-match information:
Date: on the 14th of January, 2019 (Monday)
Match start: 21:00 (GMT+1)
Tournament: La Liga.
The final match of not only the 19th round but also the whole first half of the La Liga season will be played on Monday evening.
This match will be held on Anoeta stadium which is the home arena of Real Sociedad. Both teams are extremely motivated; want to win and to get into the second circle, being in the upper part of the tournament bracket.
In fact, both teams would have no problems in getting into the second circle and even they would have all chances to gain the berths into the Eurocups, but the hopeless series of the second half of November and the whole December have ruined all hopes.
That was the time when the San-Sebastians have suffered 4 losses in a row in La Liga and Espanyol has experienced 6 defeats.
Both teams have improved situation in the last round. The Budgerigars didn’t show any interesting but Leganes was even more helpless and that is why it lost with the score 0:1. But Real Sociedad has managed to impress.
After the victory on Santiago Bernabéu the only question is left: why didn’t Sociedad finish the match with victory? The White and Blues have created a lot of scoring chances in Madrid.
They couldn’t score in the match against Betis (0:0), and we think that some of them Real Sociedad can score on Monday in a fame against Espanyol.
