Bet Sunday La Liga! Miller picks Real Sociedad vs Real Madrid with 2 plays

Barcelona draw opens door for Real Madrid to take over top spot in La Liga. Match time is 4 pm EDT.

When the La Liga season was restarted after the COVID-19 break, the direction of the title was always going to come down to which team, Barcelona or Real Madrid, would stubble the least.

Well, Barcelona flinched Friday in a 0-0 draw with Sevilla, and now Real Madrid can pull even on points with a win over suddenly struggling Real Sociedad.

Sociedad, which is battling for a UEFA Champions League place, has dropped points in both games out of the break. Real Madrid has looked like a machine, and may be the favorite to win the title with a victory Sunday.

Real Madrid is not going to let this opportunity slip; look for a win for Los Merengues.
