Barcelona’s Pursuit of La Liga Glory

Barcelona come into the match at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys for their league match against Real Sociedad with 1 eye on the La Liga table and closing in on being top of the league and overtaking fierce rivals Real Madrid. Hansi Flick’s squad sits in second on the table with 16 points, narrowly behind Real Madrid. They are undefeated in their domestic league this season with 5 wins and 1 draw. Their last performance showcases their resilient and attacking mindset of a comeback 3-1 win over Real Oviedo.
In all competitions, Barcelona have won six out of seven matches, including a Champions League win against Newcastle United. PSG awaits them in Europe next week. As a result, Flick is aware that the topic of how to watch Barcelona vs Real Sociedad will be one of the discussed topics for fans all over the world. The Catalonian behemoth will want to avoid slipping up anytime soon based off Real Madrid's form in La Liga.

Real Sociedad’s Struggles and Hopes

Meanwhile, Real Sociedad is struggling out of the blocks. They are languishing on just five points from their opening six matches and sit 16th in La Liga with three draws, three defeats and one victory. Their start to the campaign saw them draw their opening two fixtures, but then suffer three defeats which left them hovering dangerously near the bottom of the table. They managed to secure a narrow 1-0 victory over Mallorca, thanks to a goal from Mikel Oyarzabal, but consistency has been lacking.
Historically, Real Sociedad haven’t fared well against Barcelona, winning just 38 times out of a total of 196 matches. In the history of the league, the Basque outfit has only twice managed to defeat their Catalan counterparts since April 2016. Nevertheless, Francisco will be hoping that his team can create a surprise result which will keep the preview of Barcelona vs Real Sociedad interesting. Supporters will be looking forward to finding out how to watch Barcelona vs Real Sociedad to see if an upset may be on the cards.

Team News

Barcelona could be aided by Lamine Yamal and Alejandro Balde returning, though we may only see them as substitutes. The bad news, however, is that Raphinha will miss the match due to a thigh injury. Joan Garcia, Fermin Lopez, Gavi, and Marc-Andre ter Stegen are unavailable to play, though Robert Lewandowski, Frenkie de Jong, and Jules Kounde are all expected to start due to changes in the lineup. Notably, Wojciech Szczesny will be the goalkeeper for this match to replace Ter Stegen.

Real Sociedad are without Yangel Herrera and Orri Oskarsson in addition to Aritz Elustondo, who is facing late fitness testing (ideally, it will happen on matchday). Francisco is expected to maintain the same eleven that played against Mallorca, with Takefusa Kubo and Oyarzabal leading the front attack.
