We say: Real Sociedad 2-1 Celta Vigo
Celta are more than capable of making this an uncomfortable match for Real Sociedad, but we are finding it difficult to back against a home success this weekend. The Basque outfit are having a strong campaign and should have too much quality for their opponents on Saturday afternoon.

Real Madrid must keep winning in order to stay in touch with Barcelona, so there is no downplaying the importance of this match. Osasuna are capable of making this an uncomfortable game, and the hosts will be the fresher of the two teams, but we are expecting Ancelotti's side to secure all three points.
