Match Preview
Real Sociedad will host Real Madrid at the Anoeta Stadium on Sunday, 14 September, in what promises to be an intriguing La Liga clash. The home side has struggled for consistency lately, recording just two points from their last five matches, with a mix of draws and losses. In contrast, Real Madrid arrives in San Sebastián with a perfect record, having won all five of their opening league fixtures. This stark contrast in form could play a pivotal role in the match dynamics.
One key angle to consider is Real Sociedad's defensive vulnerabilities, particularly against high-pressing teams. Historically, they have had a mixed record against Real Madrid, with both sides sharing the spoils in previous encounters. However, given Madrid's current attacking prowess, they may exploit Sociedad's shaky backline. The visitors will likely aim to dominate possession and create scoring opportunities, making it essential for Sociedad to tighten their defence if they hope to secure even a point from this fixture.
