REAL SOCIEDAD - VILLARREAL

Disagree with these odds. Real Sociedad is in good form with great results, but their rivals were all very poor (Girona, Espanyol, Elche…). Barcelona destroyed them 1:4.

This team isn’t still at the level needed to fight for the top4. They have a lack of goal and a short squad, so can’t be 100% competitive playing Europa League in the midweek too. Furthermore, they have many important injuries, like captain and best player Oyarzabal (long term injury), the new signing to replace Isak - striker Sadiq, starter defenders Zubeldia and Gorosabel, and other rotation players which make a total of 8 injuries.

In the midweek game against Sheriff (away) they used their best squad, so for this game their players will be tired. Also some of these players like Silva or Le Normand had small injuries during this week so they aren’t at 100%.

On the other hand, Villarreal is for me the main candidate for the top4 with Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico. They have a great coach, squad and many alternatives.

Are playing great, and have less points than deserved because were unlucky in some games such as the draws against Cadiz and Sevilla, or the defeat against Betis. They deserved a better result there because they had chances and outplayed their rivals.

Furthermore, in the midweek game played at home (while Real Sociedad had to travel to Tiraspol) the team played with a totally B squad, full of reserves. This means that coach Emery has the best lineup fresh and ready for this game.

This is a great chance for Villarreal to show that they want to fight for the 4th position, and I see them favorites here. Have a better squad, are in better form, and with better fit than Real Sociedad. Another important date: in the last 14 games in this stadium, Villarreal won 9 and drew 3. Real Sociedad just won two.

LEVANTE - RACING SANTANDER

We go again with Levante, one of the best teams in the league.

Levante is starting to have urgencies for a victory, although we are just starting the season. The promotion playoff is 4 points above, and the promotion (top2) 7 points far. And they have a team and target to fight to get the top2.

After three games winless, with a big defeat 3:1 in the last game against Andorra, they want to get the three points at home.

Key player Rober Ibañez is back from injury, and this is good for the coach who is still trying to find the perfect lineup and system, but they don't have too much time as people are starting to become nervous with the situation in the club. This match is very important for them and can’t afford any other result than a victory, especially due to the level of the rival.

Racing Santander is probably the worst team in the league. They have a very weak squad and results have proven that they will struggle a lot to avoid relegation. They have the worst attack of the league with just 3 goals scored in 8 games (and 2 of them scored in the same game - victory 0:2 against Sporting Gijon).

They have some important injuries for this match: in defense (Mantilla and Unai Medina) and attack (Cedric and Gassama).

Levante has a great calendar to achieve positive results and reach the top positions, as their next games will be against teams in the relegation zone: Mirandes and Leganes. They can’t lose this opportunity to win at home, and should do it easily because the quality difference is huge here.

皇家社会-比利亚雷亚尔

不同意这些说法。皇家社会状态不错，成绩不错，但他们的对手都很差(赫罗纳、西班牙人、埃尔切……)巴萨以1:4击败了他们。

这支球队还没有达到为前四而战的水平。他们缺少进球，阵容也很短，所以在周中的欧联杯比赛中他们不可能有100%的竞争力。此外，他们还有很多重要的伤病，比如队长兼最佳球员奥亚尔扎巴尔(长期受伤)，新签的接替伊萨克的前锋萨迪克，首发后卫祖贝尔迪亚和戈罗萨贝尔，以及其他轮换球员，总共有8人受伤。

在周中对阵Sheriff(客场)的比赛中，他们用了最好的阵容，所以这场比赛他们的球员会很累。还有一些像席尔瓦和勒诺曼德这样的球员在这周有小伤，所以他们并没有完全恢复。

另一方面，在我看来，比利亚雷亚尔是与马德里、巴塞罗那和马竞一起争夺前四的主要候选球队。他们有一个伟大的教练，阵容和许多替代者。

他们踢得很好，但是因为在一些比赛中运气不佳，比如战平加的斯和塞维利亚，或者输给贝蒂斯，所以没有得到应有的积分。他们理应取得更好的成绩，因为他们有机会，而且比对手表现出色。

此外，在周中主场的比赛中(皇家社会不得不前往蒂拉斯波尔)，球队的阵容完全是B级的，全是预备队。这意味着埃梅里教练有最好的阵容，为这场比赛做好了准备。

这对比利亚雷亚尔来说是一个很好的机会来展示他们想要争夺第四的位置，我看到他们在这里最受欢迎。我们拥有比皇家社会更好的阵容，更好的状态，更好的状态。另一个重要的日期是:在过去的14场比赛中，比利亚雷亚尔取得9胜3平。皇家社会刚刚赢了两场。

莱万特-桑坦德竞技

我们再次与莱万特队同场竞技，联盟中最好的球队之一。

莱万特开始迫切地想要一场胜利，尽管我们才刚刚开始这个赛季。晋级季后赛高出4分，晋级(前2)则高出7分。他们有一个团队和目标去争取前2名。

在三场未胜后，上一场对安道尔的比赛以3:1惨败，他们希望在主场拿到三分。

关键球员罗伯Ibañez伤愈复出，这对仍在努力寻找完美阵容和体系的教练来说是件好事，但他们没有太多的时间，因为人们开始对俱乐部的情况感到紧张。这场比赛对他们来说非常重要，除了一场胜利，他们不能得到其他的结果，特别是考虑到对手的水平。

桑坦德竞技队可能是联赛中最差的球队。他们有一个非常弱的阵容，结果证明他们将努力保级。他们是联赛进攻最差的球队，8场比赛只进了3球(其中2球是在同场比赛中打进的——0:2战胜希洪竞技)。

他们在这场比赛中有一些重要的伤病:防守端(曼蒂拉和乌奈·梅迪纳)和进攻端(塞德里克和加萨马)。

莱万特有一个伟大的日历来取得积极的成绩并达到榜首的位置，因为他们的下一场比赛将对阵降级区的球队:米兰斯和莱加内斯。他们不能失去在主场取胜的机会，他们应该轻松取胜，因为这里的质量差异很大。
