"Real Sociedad endured a disappointing 2024-25 campaign, finishing 11th - their lowest position since 2018 - and the new season has not started much brighter. They began with draws against Valencia (1-1) and Espanyol (2-2), before slipping to a 1-0 defeat to Real Oviedo before the international break. The club's summer business was fairly quiet. Their headline signing was Yangel Herrera from Girona, though the midfielder is unavailable through injury. The biggest outgoing was Martin Zubimendi's move to Arsenal."
"As for Real Madrid, Xabi Alonso's side have made a perfect start, with victories over Osasuna, Real Oviedo and Mallorca. A win here would stretch their lead over defending champions Barcelona and maintain momentum ahead of their Champions League opener against Marseille next week. Real Madrid have no new injury concerns from the break, but Jude Bellingham, Ferland Mendy, Eduardo Camavinga and Endrick are all still sidelined."
Real Madrid sit top of La Liga after three straight wins and travel to the Reale Arena to face Real Sociedad. Real Sociedad finished 11th last season and have only two points so far after two draws and a defeat. Yangel Herrera was the main summer signing but is injured and unavailable; Martin Zubimendi left for Arsenal while Takefusa Kubo and Mikel Oyarzabal remain. Real Madrid have no new injury concerns from the break, though key players Jude Bellingham, Ferland Mendy, Eduardo Camavinga and Endrick remain sidelined. Alonso may retain the XI that beat Mallorca as momentum builds before Champions League action.
