Real Sociedad's away sample tells a similar story. Over their last 20 matches they've won 5, drawn 5 and lost 10, with 27 scored against 36 conceded. Their most recent Europa League outing was a 1-2 home defeat to Bournemouth, and their La Liga form has been patchy too, including some big scorelines both for and against.

Neither side has been convincing lately, and both took defeats in their opening Europa League league-phase fixture.

Comparative Team Statistics: Lillestrom vs Real Sociedad

Early days in the league phase

The Europa League table shows both clubs down near the bottom after just one match each. Real Sociedad sit 22nd and Lillestrom 24th, both with a loss and zero points from their opener.

It's a tiny sample, just one game apiece, so this snapshot says more about how the competition started for them than about their overall level.

Limited squad information

The player data we have only covers Lillestrom. Vá has one assist from three matches, and F. Gulbrandsen has picked up two yellow cards in the same span, but that's a partial slice, not a full team news picture.

There's nothing available on Real Sociedad's individual players, so we can't compare depth or fitness between the two squads with any confidence.

How this one might play out

Both teams go into this needing a response after losing their first Europa League league-phase game. Lillestrom's home form in Eliteserien has been inconsistent, alternating heavy wins with heavy defeats, while Real Sociedad's away displays in La Liga have swung between comfortable and shaky.

With the table showing so little between them at this early stage, and form data pointing to fragility on both sides, this doesn't look like a match with an obvious control point.
