Real Sociedad

The team had an excellent run at the beginning of this decade. And it was the merit, first of all, of Alguacil, a previously little-known specialist who worked for a long time in the structure of the project from San Sebastian. And as a result, he won the first cup since the 80s of the last century and played in the playoffs of the Champions League. But already in the season before last, there was a decline in the Premier League, which intensified even more in 2024/2025, which ended in eleventh place – and farewell to Imanol.

From the summer, Sergio Francisco was promoted to the position, again from his own double. He has had a tough start in his new role, with one win and five defeats in his first nine La Liga games. Then, it would seem, finally added, taking ten points in four matches, but now also wins in the cup. At the same time, in the final matches of the championship, they lost not only to the strong Villarreal, but also to Alaves.

Girona

In the season before last, the club became the main sensation of almost all European football, with the third final place in the Premier League. But in 2024/2025, everything was bad – both a failed debut in the Champions League, and a defeat in the Copa del Rey against amateurs, and a minimal gap in the Spanish championship from the relegated Leganes.

Now the Girondins have also been kicked out of the cup. But they clearly do not want to fight there – they need to fight for survival in La Liga. They started with defeats there, but, including due to the goals of the newcomer, Vanat, and the activity of Tsygankov, who got in shape by the end of autumn, it was possible to show that there is every chance to at least repeat the results of 2024/2025. But, of course, I want to score points, including on Saturday.

Statistics of personal meetings

A total of fourteen face-to-face matches were played, and the Catalans won only once. Their rival from San Sebastian already had five wins, including in both matches last season.

Forecast

Bookmakers consider the hosts as favorites. But they are still unstable and the visitors will be desperate for points. We bet on both to score (coefficient – 1.76).
