Fan Banter Prediction

90-minute pick — Real Sociedad to win. The pick is driven by Real Sociedad’s recent attacking form (15 goals in five across all competitions) and a convincing Europa League win away from home that shows they can produce big-score performances on the road. Lyon’s European away record this month, including a 3-0 defeat, suggests they could struggle to contain Sociedad at Anoeta.
