Real Sociedad B’s tough start to the season
Real Sociedad B are languishing in 20th place in LaLiga 2 after picking up nine points from their first 11 matches. A mix of youth rotation and a high-risk, high-reward football philosophy have seen the club struggle to compete at this level. Our Real Sociedad B vs SD Huesca prediction takes into account their inconsistent form and the challenges they face adjusting to senior competition.
Ion Ansotegui’s squad are a very young and talented group who play football at a tempo that most teams in the Spanish second division can’t compete with. Their pressing is aggressive and pro-active, the ball is moved quickly and vertically, and the players are always hungry to attack. However, the young players can be caught out at the back and while they have scored regularly, they’ve also conceded at a concerning rate.
Gorka Carrera is the hosts' main goal threat with 5 goals in 11 LaLiga 2 games, 3 of which have come in their last 5 games. The Real Sociedad B vs SD Huesca preview highlights that they’ll need to score at least once again if they are to get back on track against Huesca, who are in better shape in 15th spot with 14 points from 10.
Huesca have enough to nick a result
Huesca drew 1-1 at home to Las Palmas in their last game, while they beat regional minnows Utebo 3-0 away from home in the Copa del Rey and drew 0-0 at Albacete Balompié the week prior. Sergio Guilló’s side have a very different philosophy to their opponents on Wednesday, but also utilise a pressing style to good effect. However, Guilló has brought a bit more stability and structure to the squad since his appointment in July.
