- Venue: Doosan Arena
Real Sociedad will have the chance to secure back to back away European wins for the first time since October 2022 when they face Viktoria Plzen away from home.
Viktoria Plzen were last in action three days ago when they travelled to Slovacko in the Czech top flight. Miroslav Koubek's side came away empty-handed despite dominating proceedings, and that has been the story of their European campaign so far this term, as they have drawn all three of their matches so far. However, the Blue and Yellows will take heart from the fact that they won their last two games at the Doosan Arena.
Real Sociedad haven't done many things right this season and many pundits have term it 'surprising for a team that has finished in the top six in each of the last five La Liga campaigns'. The White and Blues currently sit in eleventh place and have won just one of their three Europa League games this term. However, La Real have been good travellers of late as they picked up a win in each of their last three games away from the Anoeta stadium.
Viktoria Plzen vs Real Sociedad Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
Plzen have been very good defensively this season, especially at home. In fact, the Blue and Yellows boast a clean sheet in eight of their nine home games this season. None of their three Europa League matches in that period produced more than one goal.
Real Sociedad don't concede many goals either, with the Spanish side conceding more than one goal just once in their last nine matches. Four of their last five ended with less than 2.5 goals scored, and I fancy a similar result in the Czech Republic on Thursday night.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
- Viktoria Plzen vs Real Sociedad prediction: 0-2

Real Sociedad team news
Real Sociedad head coach Imanol Alguacil will be unable to call upon the services of right-back Hamari Traoré on Thursday due to injury.
Traore is nursing a cruciate ligament injury that has kept him out since September, but the Malian professional is the visitors’ only injury concern.
