Our AI call, published before kickoff
1–0
Tipped scorers: Mikel Oyarzabal (Real Sociedad)
Why we called it
Matarazzo's side are pointless and goalless and face the Bernabéu midweek, so this is close to a must-win at home with Oyarzabal, Kubo and Óskarsson expected to start. Espanyol have made a decent start but Manolo González has lost both recognised strikers, Puado and Kike García, to long-term injuries, and Cabrera is suspended for this matchday. Blunt visitors and a Real Sociedad side under pressure to finally score suggests a single-goal home win.
