The hosts will enter the contest off the back of a 4-2 defeat at Girona, which left them third in the table, while Sociedad claimed a 2-0 victory over Las Palmas last time out to boost their top-six hopes.

Barcelona dropped to third following the loss to Girona, and they are locked in a battle for the runners-up spot in La Liga, but qualification for next season’s Champions League has already been secured, so there is not anything substantial for them to play for late in the campaign.

Xavi’s side have actually lost three of their last four matches across all competitions, being eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Champions League by Paris Saint-Germain, before suffering a 3-2 defeat to Real Madrid in El Clasico.

Barca bounced back by beating Valencia 4-2 in their last home game, but the defeat to Girona last time out was a setback, and they will be looking to end the campaign on a positive note, with games against Almeria, Rayo Vallecano and Sevilla to come after this one.

They have actually lost three times at their temporary home in La Liga this season, which is more than on their travels (two), and they will be hosting a Real Sociedad side who have the fourth-best away record in the division in 2023-24, picking up 27 points from their 17 games on their travels.

Real Sociedad finished fourth in La Liga last season to qualify for the 2023-24 Champions League, and they reached the last-16 stage of the competition before being beaten by PSG.

Imanol Alguacil’s side are currently in a position to qualify for the group stage of the 2023-24 Europa League, sitting in sixth position, two points ahead of seventh-placed Real Betis, with that spot bringing a Conference League playoff spot.

The Basque outfit will enter this contest off the back of a 2-0 victory over Las Palmas, but they won just one of their last four in the league, including a 1-0 home defeat to Real Madrid at the end of April.
