Good evening everybody and welcome along to another MARCA in English live blog, this time taking you through the LaLiga EA Sports clash between Real Sociedad and Barcelona from the Reale Arena.

Barcelona are poised to secure their fifth consecutive victory in LaLiga. The Catalan giants, who have been imperious this season under Hansi Flick, hold a commanding six-point lead at the top of the table. Their opponents, Real Sociedad, find themselves mired in 11th place, struggling to meet preseason expectations.

Real Sociedad's campaign has been a tale of underachievement so far. Sitting mid-table with just 15 points from 12 matches, they've managed a modest four wins, three draws, and five losses. While defensively solid - conceding only ten goals, the joint-third best record in the league - their attack has faltered, managing only ten goals, one of the poorest tallies in LaLiga.

With just four points from six matches at Anoeta, Real Sociedad have the worst home record in the league. Their struggles extend beyond LaLiga, as they recently suffered a 2-1 Europa League loss to Viktoria Plzen.

Barcelona enter the match riding high on a seven-game winning streak across all competitions. Their latest triumph, a 5-2 demolition of Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League, underscores their attacking prowess. With 40 goals scored in just 12 league matches, Flick's side has been relentless, spearheaded by Robert Lewandowski's 19 goals and Raphinha's stellar form.

Barcelona has an excellent track record at Anoeta, last losing there in April 2016. They've triumphed in 10 of their last 11 encounters with Real Sociedad in all competitions.
