The AI had correctly predicted a Real Sociedad win before the game, which aligned with the actual result, supporting the AI model's accuracy. The AI model didn't expect a balanced game.
Real Sociedad, employing a 4-2-3-1 formation, showed greater attacking intent, reflected in their higher shot count. Girona mirrored the formation, but struggled to convert their chances as efficiently. The match saw a relatively clean game with only 1 yellow card for Real Sociedad and 3 for Girona.
Real Sociedad's current form has been inconsistent, with recent losses against Celta Vigo and Atlético Madrid, a draw against Athletic Club, and another loss to Alavés. Their next match is against a strong Real Madrid side. Real Madrid has been in good form recently, winning three of their last five matches, although they lost against Barcelona in LALIGA and Copa del Rey.
Girona's form is also mixed, with recent wins against Real Valladolid and Mallorca, but losses against Villarreal and Real Betis, and a draw against Leganés. Their next game is against Atlético Madrid, who will be looking to bounce back from their recent loss to Osasuna.
Historically, Real Sociedad has had a slight edge in head-to-head encounters, but many of the recent games ended in a draw. Real Sociedad will need to improve defensively if they want to get a positive result against Real Madrid. Girona will need to tighten their defense to contain Atlético Madrid's attack, as recent head-to-head matches have seen Atlético Madrid score multiple goals.

On May 18, 2025, Real Sociedad will face Girona at the Reale Arena in a LALIGA clash. According to AI, Real Sociedad is favored to win with a 44.7% probability, while Girona has a 28.1% chance, and a draw is predicted at 27.2%. Despite Real Sociedad's recent struggles, including a painful 4-0 loss against Atlético Madrid, the AI gives them a slight edge, perhaps factoring in their home advantage. La Real's key player, Martín Zubimendi, will be crucial in controlling the midfield and shielding the defense. Girona, on the other hand, is coming off a narrow victory against Real Valladolid, but their overall form has been inconsistent. Look for Savio to be Girona's danger man, capable of unlocking defenses with his dribbling skills. The AI prediction sets the stage for a potentially tight contest in San Sebastián.
