Both teams come in with a slew of injuries that could play a role in the result, but Sociedad will look to keep their six-match unbeaten streak alive as they haven’t lost in La Liga play since October 30.

They’ve played a few non-league matches that included a 3-1 loss to Barcelona in the Super Cup, and a 3-2 win over Villarreal in Copa del Rey play. However, Sociedad are having a banner season as they sit in third place, just three points behind Madrid.
