Real Oviedo will host Real Sociedad at Estadio Municipal Carlos Tartiere on Saturday, August 30, 2025, for Round 3 of LaLiga, kicking off at 17:00 UTC[1][7]. The fixture brings together a struggling Oviedo side—promoted this summer and with two consecutive defeats and no goals scored—against an unbeaten but winless Sociedad team with two draws so far this season[2][3].
Real Oviedo currently sits 19th in the table with 0 points, having lost their last three matches and conceded at least two goals in each. They face significant issues in both attack and defense, highlighted by their inability to score and a trend of recent losses[3][4]. Key players such as Viñas, Redondo, and Ejaria will need to elevate their game to compete against Sociedad’s offense[2].
Real Sociedad enters this fixture at 13th place, showing superior form, especially offensively. They have scored eight goals in their last five matches, remain unbeaten in six consecutive games, and maintain an average of 2.85 goals scored per game in recent analyses. Their attack is spearheaded by Takefusa Kubo, who leads the team in shots on target per match (1.1)[1][2].
Historically, their head-to-head record offers little comfort for Oviedo: Sociedad won the last LaLiga match between the sides in San Sebastián (3-0), though their last trip to Oviedo ended in a surprise 1-0 defeat[5]. Overall, Sociedad is favored by bookmakers and analysts due to better cohesion, adaptation to top-flight football, and a statistically higher scoring rate. The consensus tip suggests Real Sociedad is likely to break their winless streak with a predicted 2-0 victory[5].
Live score updates, player ratings, detailed statistics, and real-time insights will be available during the match, with line-ups announced about an hour before kick-off[1][7].
