Fc Barcelona Vs Real Sociedad La Liga Match

FC Barcelona, under the leadership of coach Hansi Flick, is set to face Real Sociedad on Sunday, November 10, in a crucial La Liga match. The game, scheduled to take place at the Reale Arena in San Sebastian, Spain, marks the final La Liga fixture before the international break.

Barcelona has been in exceptional form, having won their last seven games in both La Liga and the Champions League. This streak includes significant victories such as a 4-0 win against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu and a 4-1 win over Bayern Munich. Recently, they also secured a 3-1 win against Espanyol in the local derby and a 5-2 victory in Belgrade.

Despite their strong form, Barcelona faces a challenging opponent in Real Sociedad. Historically, Barcelona had struggled at the Reale Arena, but they have been unbeaten in their last ten visits, with the last six being wins. Real Sociedad, however, has a strong defensive record, having conceded only ten goals this season, which is one fewer than Barcelona. Their issue lies in scoring, as they have not been prolific in front of the goal.

Both teams are dealing with injury issues. For Barcelona, players like Eric Garcia, Ronald Araujo, Ferran Torres, Andreas Christensen, Marc Bernal, and Marc-Andre ter Stegen will miss the game. Pau Cubarsí, who sustained a facial injury, is expected to be available, and Dani Olmo is recovering from illness. Real Sociedad is also hampered by injuries, with key players such as Nayef Aguerd, Ander Barrenetxea, Benat Turrientes, Pablo Marin, Hamari Traore, and Arsen Zakharyan ruled out.

The match is highly anticipated, with Barcelona aiming to extend their winning streak and maintain their six-point lead over Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga table. The game will be live-streamed on ESPN+ and is scheduled to start at 3 p.m. ET.
