Real Sociedad head into Thursday's fixture with Athletic Bilbao looking to end a six-match winless streak in La Liga.

Meanwhile, Athletic welcome the former leaders to the San Mames Stadium sitting in mid-table after recording just one victory over the same period.

We say: Athletic Bilbao 1-1 Real Sociedad

With neither side having produced their best form of late, we do not expect this fixture to live up to its potential. In what may be a nervy affair to end 2021, a low-scoring fixture between two well-matched sides could play out at the San Mames Stadium.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Osasuna square off against Alaves on Thursday afternoon looking to end their eight-match winless streak in La Liga.

On the back of an important 2-1 victory over Eibar, Alaves head into this contest having moved three points clear of the relegation zone.

We say: Osasuna 1-1 Alaves

Osasuna are aware that they can ill-afford another defeat to a relegation rival, and that may result in a nervous performance from the home side. However, with Alaves likely to be content with settling for a point, the home side could be given opportunities to claim a share of the spoils.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.
