**Real Sociedad B's home turf should be an advantage, but Granada's head-to-head dominance is genuinely unsettling.** Neither side is exactly firing on all cylinders, but the hosts at least have a familiar fortress to work with. 🏟️

Real Sociedad B are hovering around .500 with a frustrating mix of blowouts and narrow defeats. Granada arrived in worse form—three losses in their last five, including back-to-back comebacks against them. The visitors have zero margin for error here.

Key storylines:

- **Real Sociedad B** banking on home comfort after consecutive defeats at the Estadio Ciudad Deportiva Zubieta to stabilize
- **Granada's** defensive brittleness (shipping 6 goals in their last two matches) versus a Sociedad B attack missing suspension-hit depth
- H2H alarm bells: Granada swept both recent matchups—Real Sociedad B must find an answer or risk a third straight loss to a struggling opponent

Expected lineups:

- **Real Sociedad B**: A. Fraga, J. Balda, I. Ropero, I. Calderon, J. Garro, T. Carbonell, I. Aguirre, E. Orobengoa
- **Granada**: R. Lizoain, D. Pampín, M. L. Maroto, B. Gimber, S. Lopez, B. Dembelé, G. Gumbau, R. Alcaraz

Prediction:

**Real Sociedad B 2–1 Granada** — Home edge and Granada's form collapse should finally swing this, but it stays tight. ⚽
