This week sees the return of the Copa del Rey, with Real Sociedad taking on Xavi’s Barcelona team in a crucial quarterfinal matchup on Wednesday at Camp Nou.

Real Sociedad is currently third in the La Liga standings and has consistently performed above expectations thus far this season. In their previous match, La Real defeated Rayo Vallecano with ease by a score of 2-0, and they will attempt to repeat that feat this week.

On the other hand, Barcelona is currently at the top of the league table and has performed admirably in the domestic arena this season. The Catalan team won by one goal over Getafe over the weekend and will try to do the same in this game.

Barcelona vs Real Sociedad Prediction :

Since dropping out of the Champions League, Xavi has led Barcelona to a remarkable run of form. This week, players like Ansu Fati and Raphinha who have a point to prove will need to step up.

Although Real Sociedad has performed admirably over the past year, they will have a tough task ahead of them on Wednesday. On paper, Barcelona is the better team, and they have the advantage going into this game.

Prediction: Barcelona 3-1 Real Sociedad

It doesn’t get much better when it comes to the selection, with only one fitness issue for Barcelona manager Xavi Hernández to worry about thanks to a group that is almost full strength. Keidi Bare won’t play because of a ruptured ankle ligament.

Imanol Alguacil, manager of Real Sociedad, is currently dealing with fewer options for the team. Jon Pacheco (Lower leg Injury), Álex Sola (Hamstring Injury), Umar Sadiq (Cruciate Tendon Crack), Andoni Gorosabel (Lower leg Injury), Ander Guevara (Hamstring Injury), Mikel Merino (Hamstring Injury), and Martín Merquelanz (Knee Injury) are names that won’t be in the group sheet.
