The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Thursday's Europa League clash between Real Sociedad and RB Leipzig, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Real Sociedad 1-3 RB Leipzig (Leipzig win 5-3 on aggregate)

Leipzig have been in free-scoring mode all season long, and that is unlikely to change against a Sociedad side whom they already have goalscoring experience against and who were humbled by Athletic at the weekend. With nearly a fully-fit squad to select from and morale at its highest point, we cannot see any other result than a safe passage into the last-16 stage for Tedesco's side. Read more.
