vs

Real Sociedad

Preview

Girona FC

• Real Sociedad are eighth in the standings with 44 points from 35 games, while Girona FC are 17th with 38 points from 34.
• Real Sociedad will be a difficult team to face for a Girona FC side that have lost three in a row and won only one of their last five LaLiga games.
• Michel has maintained a 3-3-1-3 system for most of his tenure as Girona FC coach since July 2021 and his team likes to create central overloads, control the ball and then explode forward in a rapid transition.
• Vladyslav Vanat has scored 9 in 27 LaLiga appearances for the Catalans and remains their biggest threat in the final third.

Real Sociedad

• The Basque side sit well above the hosts in the table and have a bit of momentum to maintain after a run in the Copa del Rey.
• Pellegrino Matarazzo has instilled a high-pressing style and possession-based system that keeps opponents under constant pressure at all levels of the field since taking over at the start of December 2025.
• They play a flexible 4-3-3 system that can change to a 4-2-3-1 if needed and rely on wide play, good positional rotations and a high press to create chances.
• Mikel Oyarzabal is their talisman, with 15 goals in 31 LaLiga games, and has been a constant threat to defences this season.
• Orri Oskarsson has chipped in with three of their last seven goals.
