Girona vs Real Sociedad

Girona’s incredible La Liga title pursuit continues at Estadio Municipal de Montilivi against out-of-sorts Real Sociedad.

The sky is the limit for this remarkable Girona side after a nail-biting 1-0 win at bottom-half Celta Vigo last time out preserved their near-flawless La Liga record this season (W17, D4, L1). With table-topping Real Madrid only two points off, a historic maiden La Liga title is still up for grabs as Michel Sanchez’s lads return to Municipal seeking a fifth successive home league win. No strangers to posting stylish victories, they’ve spiced their last three La Liga home triumphs with at least three goals, contributing to the division’s second-high 30 home goals in 2023/24! However, Sociedad’s upcoming visit to Catalonia ought to put Girona’s title credentials to a stern test, considering the hosts are winless in all seven top-flight H2Hs in the 21st century (D5, L2).

Real Sociedad’s telling H2H record is perhaps the only consolation for Imanol Alguacil, who cut a frustrated character after his injury-ravaged side stuttered in a 0-0 home draw against Rayo Vallecano last weekend. Indeed, Sociedad’s topsy-turvy three-game La Liga form (W1, D1, L1) has demoted them to sixth in the table, throwing their hopes of securing another European finish into a corridor of doubt. With seventh-placed Betis only two points below, the San Sebastian-based giants must defy their indifferent away league record in 2023/24 (W4, D4, L3) to keep hold of the last European qualification spot. But after netting under 1.5 goals on their three most recent La Liga travels (W1, D1, L1), the visitors are hardly in a position to place high expectations ahead of this trip.
