Orri Óskarsson
RSO
Scores winning goal
Oskarsson scored one goal to go with three shots (three on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.
Analysis: Oskarsson netted what would be the winning goal, and he was rewarded for putting all three of his shots on frame. He should retain his position in the starting lineup against Celta Vigo, a team which has conceded four goals so far this season and allowed 48 in 38 matches last season.
Three shots in opener
Oskarsson generated three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Friday's 1-0 loss versus Betis.
Analysis: Oskarsson started Friday's season opener, leading the line for Sociedad to start the new campaign. He took three shots and created one chance in his full 90 minutes of action but was unable to find a goal contribution as he and his side dropped the opening match of the season. He faces a more difficult matchup Wednesday at Real Madrid.
Scores opener in 1-1 draw
Oskarsson scored one goal to go with four shots (three on goal) in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Espanyol.
Analysis: Oskarsson scored the only goal for Real Sociedad as they went on to draw 1-1 with Espanyol. This was his eighth start of the season, and he scored his ninth goal of the campaign. Six of his eight starts in La Liga have come in the last eight Real Sociedad matches. He has taken at least three shots in the last three matches he has played in.
Goals in two straight
Oskarsson scored a goal while taking three shots (two on goal), crossing twice inaccurately and creating a chance during Sunday's 4-3 loss to Valencia.
Analysis: Oskarsson found the back of the net in the 63rd minute scoring Soceidad's third and final goal. The forward has goals in two straight appearances while combining for nine shots, two chances created and three crosses in his last three appearances.
Clears suspension
Oskarsson has served his one-game ban against Girona and is eligible again for future contests.
Analysis: Oskarsson was in good form before serving suspension, as he achieved three goals over his last five matches played. Despite being a strong attacking option, the striker usually sits behind Mikel Oyarzabal in the center-forward depth chart, although it's also possible that both strikers play in a front two, in which case the Icelander would be an interesting source of offensive numbers.
Handed fifth yellow card
Oskarsson is set for a one-match ban due to yellow card accumulation.
Analysis: Oskarsson is not going to be an option come Thursday, as he will be suspended to face Girona due to yellow card accumulation. After starting in four of their past five games, this will force a change, likely leaving Mikel Oyarzabal to start at forward while the team goes for a less attacking formation.
Finds back of net
Oskarsson scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-3 draw versus Rayo Vallecano. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 56th minute.
Analysis: Oskarsson would score the second goal of the match for Sociedad on Sunday as they worked for a draw, finding the back of the net in the 63rd minute. This comes as his second goal in their past three games, also scoring against Alaves. He is up to six goals on the season in 14 shots, recording 16 appearances (five starts).
