Real Sociedad vs Barcelona Prediction: Cules hungry for goals

Barcelona will be targeting another Spanish Primera Division victory on Sunday when they travel to San Sebastian to face Real Sociedad.

Los Cules have been scoring for fun recently and seem to be bursting with confidence at the moment under Hansi Flick, while Sociedad have climbed up the table recently after a decent bit of form.

Match Preview

Real Sociedad Recent Form

After a poor start to the season, Real Sociedad’s form has picked up domestically as they have won three, lost one and drawn one out of their last five in La Liga, with the victories coming against Valencia, Girona and Sevilla.

Last time out at home in the league, they suffered a disappointing 2-0 defeat against Osasuna, however.

Real Sociedad Injury News

Real Sociedad will likely be without Benat Turrientes, Ander Barrenetxea, Arsen Zakharyan, Hamari Traore and Pablo Marin.

Barcelona Recent Form

Barcelona have been in sensational form recently as they have won each of their last seven matches across all competitions.

In that run, they have beat Alaves, Sevilla, Real Madrid and Espanyol in La Liga and Young Boys, Bayern Munich and Crvena Zvezda in the Champions League.

The results and performances against Bayern (4-1) and Real Madrid (4-0) were particularly special.

Barcelona Injury News

Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Marc Bernal, Ronald Araujo, Ferran Torres, Eric Garcia and Andreas Christensen are all still out for Barca.

In the Champions League midweek, young defender Pau Cubarsi was kicked in the face and had to have 10 stitches applied so it’s unlikely he’ll feature on Sunday.
