Real Sociedad returns to La Liga action after a 2-1 defeat to Viktoria Plzeň in the UEFA Europa League, aiming to improve on their mid-table standing. Although they had a slow start to the season, Sociedad has shown recent improvement, losing just one of their last six league games (W3, D2). However, that sole defeat came in their most recent home outing, raising questions about their ability to secure points at the Reale Arena.
In this preview, we analyze both teams' recent form, key stats, and players to watch as Sociedad aims to end a poor historical record against Barcelona, while the visitors look to extend their dominance in La Liga.
Sociedad’s form has been inconsistent, particularly at home, where they’ve struggled this season with just one win in six league games (W1, D1, L4). Back-to-back home defeats in La Liga leave them vulnerable, especially as they face a Barcelona team that has historically dominated them in recent years. Sociedad has won only one of their last 16 La Liga matches against Barcelona (D2, L13), with recent Reale Arena performances offering little confidence of a turnaround.
Defensively, Sociedad has allowed two goals in each of their home defeats, exposing vulnerabilities that Barcelona could easily exploit. Nevertheless, with recent encouraging performances in La Liga, Sociedad will look to turn their mid-season momentum into a statement win, though it will take a solid defensive effort to keep Barcelona’s high-powered attack at bay.
Barcelona arrives with a nine-point lead at the top of La Liga, having beaten Red Star Belgrade 5-2 in the UEFA Champions League. With seven consecutive wins in all competitions, Barça's attacking form is formidable, scoring three or more goals in six of those matches. Under Hansi Flick, Barcelona has shown exceptional away form, with six wins in seven La Liga away games (W6, D1), making Flick the first Barça boss since Gerardo Martino in 2013 to achieve such a feat.
Barcelona’s consistency extends to their defense as well, boasting one of the most disciplined lines in Europe by catching opponents offside 83 times in La Liga this season. If they secure a win here, it would mark their fifth consecutive top-flight H2H away victory over Sociedad—a new record in the competition.
With Barcelona’s firepower and Sociedad’s struggles at home, the visitors are clear favorites. Sociedad may adopt a defensive approach, but Barcelona's consistent goal-scoring and disciplined play will likely challenge the hosts at both ends of the pitch. Expect Sociedad to put up a fight, but Barcelona’s current form and depth could be too much for them to handle.

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
