Barcelona, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result following a 2-4 La Liga success against Espanyol.

In that game, Barcelona managed 70% possession and 15 attempts on goal with 5 on target. For Barcelona, the goalscorers were Robert Lewandowski (11', 40'), Alejandro Balde (20') and Jules Koundé (53'). On the other side, Espanyol had 15 shots on goal with 7 of them on target. Javi Puado (73') and Joselu (92') scored for Espanyol.

Their most recent results highlight the fact that much respect should be given to the Barcelona backline. Barcelona have been stingy, resulting in the total number of goals that have flown into the back of their net over the course of their last 6 outings standing at 4.

Taking a look at their past results, Barcelona:

  • are unbeaten in the league by Real Sociedad in their last 13 matches. It's quite some record.
  • are unbeaten in their last 17 home league matches. It really has been a fortress.

In their previous fixture, Real Sociedad drew 2-2 in the La Liga match with Girona FC.

In that game, Real Sociedad had 51% possession and 15 attempts at goal with 5 of them on target. For Real Sociedad, the scorers were Mikel Oyarzabal (5') and David Silva (24'). For their opponents, Girona had 13 attempts on goal with 6 on target. Yan Couto (37') and Cristhian Stuani (45') scored for Girona FC.

Throughout their six previous matches, Imanol Alguacil's Real Sociedad have found the back of the net 8 times therefore giving them the goals per game average of 1.33.

Heading into this contest, Real Sociedad haven't been defeated in their previous 2 league matches away from home.

🤜🤛 Head to head

Delving into their past head to head meetings stretching back to 13/01/2021 shows that these encounters have been a source of anguish for Real Sociedad. They’ve not been able to register any victories whatsoever whereas Barcelona have been dominant against them, finishing as winners in 83 per cent of those ties.

There were also goals galore in those games, with 22 in total which averages out at 3.67 goals per match.

📋 Team News: Barcelona

Ronald Araújo (Calf Injury) and Pedri (Thigh Problems) aren’t available for Barcelona manager Xavi Hernández.

In our view, Barça may well make use of the 4-3-3 system for the game and select M. ter Stegen, Alex Balde, Jules Kounde, Andreas Christensen, Jordi Alba, Franck Kessie, Sergio Busquets, Frenkie de Jong, Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski and Ousmane Dembele.

ℹ️ Team News: Real Sociedad

Real Sociedad boss Imanol Alguacil has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Brais Méndez (Tear in the abductor muscle), Umar Sadiq (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) and Martín Merquelanz (Knee Injury) are those who can’t be considered.

It’s our belief that Txuri-urdin could decide to utilise a 4-3-1-2 system, choosing Alex Remiro, Aritz Elustondo, Igor Zubeldia, Robin Le Normand, Diego Rico, Mikel Merino, Martin Zubimendi, Asier Illarramendi, Ander Barrenetxea, Alexander Soerloth and Mohamed-Ali Cho.

⚡ Prediction

In this game, Barcelona are likely to dominate on the ball and be rewarded with decent chances.

However, Real Sociedad could well find it tough finding the net themselves - but, we do see them managing to get on the scoresheet as well here.

We can therefore see a comfortable 3-1 winning margin for Barcelona after 90 minutes.
