Real Sociedad vs SD Huesca prediction, preview, team news and more | La Liga 2020-21

The 2020-21 edition of La Liga is back in action this weekend with another round of games as Real Sociedad host Huesca at the Anoeta on Sunday. Real Sociedad have been excellent this season and are the favourites to win this game.

Huesca returned to La Liga after a successful season in the Segunda Division but have not done as well as the other promoted teams this season. The away side are yet to win a match in La Liga and will face a difficult challenge against Real Sociedad this weekend.

Real Sociedad are currently at the top of the La Liga standings after an excellent start to the season. The Basque outfit will want to finish in the top four this season and cannot afford to slip up against a struggling Huesca side.

Real Sociedad vs SD Huesca Prediction

Real Sociedad have been exceptional in La Liga this season and have one of the best midfield in the country. The likes of David Silva and Mikel Merino can dominate games on their own and will want to put in another positive performance over the weekend.

Huesca can be a well-drilled side on their day, however, and will have to be a much-improved outfit to take something away from this fixture. Real Sociedad have been prolific so far and are the favourites to win this game.

Prediction: Real Sociedad 3-1 SD Huesca
