Betis vs Real Sociedad Preview and Team News
Betis Team News
It’s hard to analyze the start of the season for Betis. On one hand, the team have lost just one of their first five LaLiga fixtures (W1, D3, L1), with the lone defeat coming against a superior Athletic Club side.
On the other hand, the Andalusians have secured only one win despite having a relatively easy schedule against Levante, Alavés, and Elche, three clubs Betis should be able to defeat with little to no problems.
The stats back that up, as Manuel Pellegrini’s men have topped their opponents in the xG category by a sizable margin in three of the four matches in which they’ve avoided defeat. That paints a clear picture, as they’re doing a good job controlling games, but they simply can’t capitalize on their opportunities. With a W1, L1 record at home this season, Betis don’t have a lot of margin right now.
The good news is that Pellegrini’s team should go nowhere but up, as they’re slowly getting healthier and have already integrated Antony, their star signing of the summer, into the squad. Betis’s only absentees for this encounter are Ricardo Rodríguez and Isco, and neither is expected back anytime soon as they continue to recover from their respective injuries.
Betis predicted lineup vs Real Sociedad (4-2-3-1): Pau López; Bellerín, Bartra, Natan, Junior Firpo; Fornals, Altimira; Antony, Lo Celso, Riquelme; Hernández.
Real Sociedad Team News
Betis have shown enough this season to give their fans reason to believe better results are on the horizon. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said about Real Sociedad. The Basque side have been enduring a tough start to the season, and their problems got even bigger in the previous match as their winless streak extended to four games (D2, L2) following a tight 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid in San Sebastián.
Even though Real Sociedad showed promise in the second half, a slow start doomed their chances of pulling the upset against Los Merengues. Winless on the road so far this season (D1, L1) and coming off a defeat to Real Oviedo in their most recent away fixture, they’re far from encouraging for a squad that opened the season with European aspirations. Instead, the Basques are on a negative run of just one win in their last 10 league outings (W1, D3, L6).
To make things even more complicated, Real Sociedad will be short on depth due to injuries to midfielders Yangel Herrera and Brais Méndez, as well as striker Orri Oskarsson. That leaves Mikel Oyarzabal and Takefusa Kubo to carry the load, but it seems the star duo can’t turn things around on their own as they had done in past seasons.
Real Sociedad predicted lineup vs Betis (4-3-3): Remiro; Aramburu, Caleta-Car, Zubeldía, Aihen; Gorrotxategi, Carlos Soler, Marín; Kubo, Oyarzabal, Barrenetxea.

Betis vs Real Sociedad Prediction, Odds
- Pick: Betis to win
- Odds: +108 (Tonybet)
- Correct score prediction: Betis 1-0 Real Sociedad
The designated hosts are believed to be favourites and should be able to secure all three points. Even though their recent performances have left much to be desired, Betis have shown an ability to bounce back quickly from setbacks. Their capacity to adjust makes them dangerous, as demonstrated in their comeback 2-2 draw against Levante.
That resilience is something Real Sociedad have yet to display in 2025-26. Even though the team showed signs of quality against Real Madrid, they once again fell short. Playing on the road won’t do them any favours, as the Donostiarras are on a six-match winless skid away from home at the domestic level (D2, L4).
The form of both sides, combined with their scoring struggles in recent weeks, points toward this being a low-scoring affair. And while small margins are likely to decide the game, Betis should have enough quality to get back to winning ways just before their UEFA Europa League debut next week, further extending Sociedad’s miserable start to the 2025-26 campaign.
Betis vs Real Sociedad Betting Tip
- Pick: Both teams to score – no
- Odds: -104 (Tonybet)
Each of the previous 10 head-to-head meetings between these two sides has ended with either only one team finding the back of the net or no goals at all. Also, the fact that seven of their last eight encounters have produced under 2.5 total goals suggests that there shouldn’t be a lot of scoring to begin with. Neither Betis nor Real Sociedad have looked particularly dominant in front of goal this season.
