Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Los Blancos have a one-goal advantage coming in from the first leg.

Real Madrid are set to host Real Sociedad in the second leg of the Copa del Rey 2024-25 semi-final. Both sides have produced some low-scoring matches, looking at the last few confrontations. Carlo Ancelotti’s men came out on top in the first leg after Endrick scored the contest’s only goal to make it 1-0.

This is not going to be an easy fixture for both sides. A win for any of the sides will help them book a direct slot for the Copa del Rey final. The losing team will be knocked out.

Real Madrid will be at home for the second leg. This will be a big add-on for them. They are coming in after securing a close win over Leganes in their last LaLiga fixture.

On the other hand, Real Sociedad will be under pressure as they have already been knocked out of the UEFA Europa League, and they are left with the only chance to get close to a title for this season. Real Madrid at home will not be an easy task for Sociedad. The visitors will have to give their all to take down Los Blancos here.

Players to Watch

Kylian Mbappe (Real Madrid)

The Frenchman is in great form as far as club football is concerned. Kylian Mbappe is coming in after scoring a brace for Real Madrid in their LaLiga contest against Leganes, which led Carlo Ancelotti’s men to an important win. Mbappe will be a menace to the opponent’s defence with his ability to find spaces.

Ander Barrenetxea (Real Sociedad)

Leading the attack from the left, Ander Barrenetxea has scored three goals in the Copa del Rey for his side and will be playing a crucial role in the attacking front once again. The visitors are just a single goal behind, but they will still be under pressure. Barrenetxea will have a chance to lead his side to a win here and emerge as a game-changer.
