Barcelona vs Real Sociedad Preview and Team News

Barcelona Team News

Barcelona, who are the leaders of La Liga, will be desperate to get their hands on the title by evading the likes of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid as quickly as possible. 

Manager Hansi Flick has introduced an artistic way of passing that has quickly caught on amongst the fans, and made them turn out in huge numbers even though the games are not being played at Camp Nou. 

BarcelonaDetails
La Liga Standings (Top 3 Teams)1. Barcelona: 54 points

2. Real Madrid: 54 points

3. Atlético Madrid: 53 points

Barcelona’s Recent Performance13 goals scored in the last 5 matches
Top Goal ScorerRobert Lewandowski (Barcelona): 20 goals
Injured PlayersMarc Bernal and Marc-André ter Stegen ruled out for the rest of the season

They currently have 54 points to their name in the league table but Madrid are second with the same number of points – there is just no separating these two teams at this stage of the league. Atletico, meanwhile, are third with 53. It is going to be a three-way tussle between these three teams till the end of the season. 

Currently, Barcelona have scored 13 goals in their last 5 matches, of which Robert Lewandowski has been the man to watch out for. He is the competition’s top scorer (20) currently. Marc Bernal and Marc-Andre Ter Stegen have been ruled out for the rest of the season with injuries.

Barcelona predicted lineup vs Real Sociedad (4-2-3-1): Szczęsny; Kounde, Cubarsi, Martinez, Balde; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, Olmo, Raphinha; Lewandowski.

Real Sociedad Team News

Real Sociedad do not have much to lose in this game, especially as they are playing away from home, but nothing will prevent them from giving it their all and barging in at the hosts with their horns blaring. 

Hamari Traoré’s long-term absence from their team due to a cruciate ligament injury for the rest of the season will be a challenge for them, while Jon Pacheco and Luka Sučić are not expected to return from injury until the middle of March. 

Nayef Aguerd too has sustained a thigh injury and is expected to be fully fit by mid-March. Sociedad will naturally be proud of their defensive stability as they have kept the most clean sheets in the competition (12). 

Up front, Sergio Gomez has created the most big chances for Real Sociedad (9), and he will be the one to watch out for in this game as well. With their unique 4-1-4-1 formation, Sociedad often find spaces in the final third when it seems to be at a premium. Their wingers are also known to dictate the way they pass the ball around.

Real Sociedad predicted lineup vs Barcelona (4-1-4-1): Remiro; Aramburu, Elustondo, Martin, J. Lopez; Zubimendi; Kubo, Zakharyan, Marin, S. Gomez; Oyarzabal.

Barcelona vs Real Sociedad Prediction

  • Pick: Barcelona to win
  • Odds: -370 (20Bet)
  • Score prediction: Barcelona 2-1 Real Sociedad

Despite Real Sociedad’s defensive strengths, we expect Barcelona to either win or draw this game. They are one of the best attacking sides in the league, and Flick has charmed his players into giving their 200 per cent every time they step onto the pitch. 

Barcelona have beaten or drawn Sociedad on 28 occasions out of the 35 they have played against each other, and a repeat of the same will be expected here as well. At home, Barca’s record becomes even better, as they have beaten Sociedad in 16 out of the 17 times the teams have met.

Barcelona vs Real Sociedad Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Total over 2
  • Odds: -357 (20Bet)

We expect to see a total of over 2 goals in this game given the quality of attackers on both sides on offer. While Barca will rely a lot on Lewandowski and Raphinha at the top of the tree, Mikel Oyarzabal is the player who can get Sociedad ahead in times of trouble. 

The latter has scored four goals in the league this season and will be keen on adding to his tally this time around as well. Barcelona have scored in their last five matches, while Sociedad have done so in four out of their last five, which means that there is a high chance of both of them getting onto the scoresheet here.
