CD MirandesvsReal Sociedad San Sebastian B

Clash of Aspirations

CD Mirandes and Real Sociedad San Sebastian B are set to lock horns in a battle that promises drama and intensity. Mirandes, perched at the third spot in La Liga 2, are eyeing the summit. Their recent form is a mixed bag, with a thrilling 3-2 win against Malaga and a dominant 4-0 victory over Deportivo La Coruna. Yet, a narrow 1-0 defeat to Huesca looms large. The absence of key players Unai Eguiluz and Postigo due to injuries could be a thorn in their side.

The Home Fortress

Mirandes have been a force at home, winning three of their last five encounters against Real Sociedad B at their fortress. Historically, they have dominated this fixture, winning seven of the last eleven meetings. Their attacking prowess is evident, averaging 1.62 goals per game at home. Carlos Fernandez Luna, their top scorer, will be pivotal in breaking down the opposition's defense.

The Struggles of Real Sociedad B

Real Sociedad B, the reserve team of the La Liga giants, has been struggling on the road. They have lost all seven of their away matches this season, a worrying trend that doesn't bode well for their chances. Despite their mid-table position, their away form is a glaring weakness. However, they have shown resilience, with standout performances from Peru Rodriguez and Gorka Carrera Zarranz, who have been crucial in their attacking plays.

Prediction

Given the historical dominance and current form of Mirandes, they are poised to capitalize on Real Sociedad B's away woes. Expect a hard-fought battle with both teams finding the net, but Mirandes should edge it. The prediction is a home win with both teams scoring.
