Granada vs Real Sociedad: Preview, Prediction & Betting Tips.

This betting preview contains recent form, possible lineups, injury news, match predictions and betting tips for Granada vs Real Sociedad.

Fixture: Granada vs Real Sociedad League: La Liga Venue: Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes Date: 17th December 2016 Kick-off: 5:30pm GMT

Betting Preview:

Granada are currently on a poor run of form with only one game won all season - a 2-1 win over Sevilla 2 weeks ago. Manager Lucas Alcaraz has an uphill battle on his hands as the club are 3 points away from safety in the league table. They have conceded goals in all but one game all season and Saturday's match will really put Alcaraz's team to the test. Sociedad on the other hand are one of the impressive teams in the league as they find themselves occupying the top 6 positions. With 6 wins in 10 games, Eusebio Sacristan's men are one of the in form teams in La Liga. A victory over Atletico Madrid and a draw at home to Barcelona showcases their talents amongst the League's elite.

Match Prediction:

Granda find themselves in desperate need of three points at home to Sociedad in order to climb out of the relegation places. Alcarez does have a lot of quality at his disposal which leaves a lot of questions as to why they are stranded at the bottom. Sociedad have only 3 wins on the road and despite their fortunes this season, they did receive a 5-1 trouncing over at Deportivo two games ago. Granada will be fighting blood and tears for the three points so I'm going for home advantage here.

Possible Lineups:

Granada: Ochoa; Tito, Lomban, Saunier, Silva; Samper, Pereira, Buena, Boga, Carcela-González; Kravets Real Sociedad: Rulli; C. Martínez, Navas, I. Martinez, Yuri; Illarramendi, Prieto, Zurutuza; Vela, Juanmi, Jose
