Command Analysis

Real Sociedad

Current form
Real Sociedad has not demonstrated stable results in the Europa League, but nevertheless managed to score seven points in five rounds and is in 16th place. Given the density of the table, the team has quite a working chance to fight for a place in the top 8. After an unexpected away defeat to Viktoria Plzen (1:2), Imanol Alguacil team won with the same score on their home field against Ajax and made it clear that it is not worth underestimating the team, especially in home matches. In the previous round of Primera, Real Sociedad confidently won away against Leganes with a score of 3:0 and rose to sixth place.
Disqualifications and injuries
Traore, Elustondo, Oscarsson, Zakharyan and Turrientes will not play today due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Real Sociedad have failed to win in the first half in seven of their last eight Europa League matches
- The team has failed to score more than two goals in 14 of their previous 16 home matches in the Europa League
Estimated line-up: Remiro - Aramburu, Zubeldia, Aguerde, Munoz - Mendes, Zubimendi, Sucich - Kubo, Oyarzabal, Barrenetxea.

Dynamo Kyiv

Current form
Dynamo is doing very well in the national championship, but we see a complete failure in the international arena. In the national championship, the Kiev team is leading after 16 rounds with a gap of three points from Oleksandria. In the Europa League, even taking into account the far from difficult calendar, they have not managed to score a single point in five rounds, and all the other teams have at least one point. The attacking play of Oleksandr Shovskovsky team raises many questions - only one goal has been scored. In the last round, they failed to score points against Viktoria Plzen (1:2).
Disqualifications and injuries
Yarmolenko, Shepelev and Ceballos will not play today.
Interesting trends for betting
- The Kievans have not won in their last 13 matches in the Europa League (one draw and 12 defeats)
- The team has failed to score in five of its previous six Europa League matches
Estimated line-up: Bushchan - Tymchyk, Popov, Mikhavko, Vivcharenko - Mikhaylenko, Brazhko - Kabaev, Buyalsky, Voloshin - Vanat.
