LiontipsReal Sociedad vs Manchester United. Prediction and Betting Tips for UEFA Europa League
Command Analysis
Real Sociedad got into an easy group with Manchester United, Sheriff and Omonia. Imanol Alguacil's team was considered one of the main favourites for a play-off spot. In the first match team managed to defeat the Red Devils (1:0) on away. The White-Blues took a victory over Omonia (2:1) in the following game.
Two victories over Sheriff by a total score of 5:0 brought a play-off spot to Real Sociedad, but they marched on their winning streak, beating Omonia once again, this time in Cyprus.
San Sebastian team is currently 5th in La Liga, they have 22 points, just one behind the Champions League spot. The White-Blues fell off the Top-4 after a 0:2 defeat to Betis in the previous La Liga match.
Manchester United are enjoying a solid season under the management of Eric ten Hag. The Red Devils have started the Europa League with a 0:1 defeat to Real Sociedad, but that defeat didn't affect team's play-off chances. A 3:0 victory over Sheriff in the previous match became a fourth one for Manchester side and it is enough to clinch a play-off spot for the Red Devils.
Manchester United are less successful in the English Premier League. After 12 matches the Red Devils are 5th in the standings with 24 points to their name. Team is eight points behind the leading Arsenal, which will be almost impossible to overcome, given the level of opposition. Manchester United should be able to reach the 4th spot though, ten Hag's men are just one point behind Newcastle and have a game in hand.

Tip and bets
Real Sociedad suffered a second consecutive defeat, losing to Betis in the previous La Liga match. However, we doubt that it is the start of a crisis. Defeats may be explained by a long injuried list. Overall, hosts are in a good form and they are always dangerous at Anoeta, so we don't think that Manchester United will get the three points here.
Our prediction - Real Sociedad to not lose
Real Sociedad are enjoying a fantastic run through the group stage, losing no points in five games. The White-Blues are especially strong at home - five victories in six latest matches. Manchester United won't put all they have into the Europa League, they are already in the playoffs, English Premier League is more important for them now.
It's safe to say the same about the hosts, who will be satisfied with a draw, which guarantees a top spot in the group. We think that opponents won't try too hard and will eventually settle for a draw.
Our second bet is on a draw
