Real Sociedad hosts Barcelona in round 28 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Sunday, March 21st at Reale Seguros Stadium (San Sebastian)
Real Sociedad is currently on the fifth line of the La Liga standings. The team set a goal to compete for a place in the TOP-4. Its main competitor is Sevilla, which is ahead by nine points. The team from San Sebastian had left the Europa League two weeks earlier, giving way to Manchester United. Now Real Sociedad can focus on the Spanish Championship. Last weekend, Sociedad's 7-match unbeaten streak was interrupted. Granada scored a goal at the beginning of the second half, and the White-Blues failed to win back. The ball possession in the second half was 75%, but Imanol Alguacil's men did not manage to hit the target. As a result, Real Sociedad suffered a sixth defeat in the current LaLiga.

Barcelona expectedly left the Champions League, losing to PSG. Now the Catalans will do everything to displace unstable Atletico Madrid from the first line of the standings. The previous La Liga round closed on Monday. On that day, Barcelona hosted Huesca and had no problems against the main outsider of the tournament (4-1). The leader of the Catalans, Lionel Messi, became the hero of that match. He scored two goals and made one assist. The player has set several achievements and received 10 from the Whoscored portal, which is a very rare event in football. If Barcelona steps up in LaLiga, it will be able to fight for gold medals. Now Ronald Koeman's charges are two points ahead of Real Madrid, and the gap to Atlético is only four points.
Real Sociedad is a tough and very unyielding opponent. The White-Blues are constantly causing problems not only for Barcelona but also for other top rivals in La Liga. If we look at the last seven head-to-head matches, the Catalans have never had an advantage of more than one goal. The teams already crossed paths at the beginning of 2021. The regulation time of the Spanish Super Cup semifinal ended with a score of 1:1. And there is a feeling that Barcelona will again have trouble in San Sebastian. Finally, we will note the fact that Sociedad regularly hits the Catalans’ net, and the defense of the visitors in the person of Lenglet and two youngsters Araujo and Mingueza (Pique is injured) currently leaves much to be desired. The hosts will certainly offer battle and won’t lose with a large goal difference.
Prediction for the match: Real Sociedad to win with +1.0 handicap
