Watch Valencia CF Vs. Real Sociedad Stream Live: Start Time, Preview, Contenders For Europe Clash In La Liga
Valencia CF will look to build on a season that saw them qualify for the UEFA Champions League for the first time since 2015, as well as winning their first Copa del Rey since 2008 when they overcame the defending and 30-time Cup winners Barcelona. The campaign gets started when they face another club hoping to take a European slot out of La Liga, the Basque Country Real Sociedad. The Txuri-urdinak, however, missed out on a UEFA Europa League place when they fell to Espanyol 2-0 on the final day of the 2018/2019 season, as The Hard Tackle reports. But with 20-year-old Norwegian sensation Martin Ødegaard in their camp to start the season, Real hope to upset last year’s 4th-place finishers in the match that will stream live from Valencia.
