Real Sociedad vs Zenit Live Score and Live Stream

Preview

Real Sociedad faced Zenit in the Group L of Europa League on December 7. The game ended 1-3 in Zenit's favor.

The breakthrough came on the 35th minute when Aleksandr Erokhin converted the chance, putting Zenit ahead. This was followed by goals from Willian Jose, Branislav Ivanovic and Leandro Paredes, setting the final scoreline at 1-3.

All eyes turn to the pitch as Real Sociedad and Zenit square off once more, 2 months after their previous Group L match that concluded in a 3-1 victory for Zenit. On a difficult run, Real Sociedad approach this match following losses against Atletico Madrid and Lleida Esportiu, as they have now gone three matches without tasting victory. A more organized backline could be the foundation for success, since their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have allowed goals in three consecutive matches.

In their last match, Zenit, on the other hand, emerged victorious against Ural, giving them confidence as they approach this game. Despite this, their defense has shown cracks, conceding goals in their last three matches in a row.

This Group L clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of Real Sociedad and Zenit. Real Sociedad’s offensive unit, carefully orchestrated by Eusebio Sacristan, has leaned on Willian Jose, their main scorer, and Mikel Oyarzabal, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. Real Sociedad’s top scorer in Group L, Jose, has four goals this season. Real Sociedad have also relied on Diego Llorente, Juanmi and Asier Illarramendi to energize their attack through key shots and passes.

Meanwhile, Zenit’s attacking options, under Roberto Mancini’s guidance, have been bolstered by Aleksandr Kokorin, the team’s top scorer, and Emiliano Ariel Rigoni, both of whom have contributed crucial goals. Rigoni has emerged as Zenit’s leading scorer in Group L this season, netting six goals. Supporting them are Domenico Criscito, Leandro Paredes and Sebastian Driussi, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to Zenit’s attack.
